“We are told to let our light shine, and if it does,
we won’t need to tell anybody it does.
Lighthouses don’t fire cannons to call attention to their shining –
they just shine.”
Dwight L. Moody<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let us rejoice and be glad! Hosanna!
Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!
Come save us, Lord! Hosanna!

God\u2019s steadfast love endures forever! Hosanna!
