Manistee Church update
We (Mikie & I) are approaching the end of our first “quarter” of ministry in Manistee. The first three months have been slow but encouraging.

There’s No Place Like Home
By Sara Blasko, Children’s Ministry Director We’ve heard it in the Wizard of Oz, and we’ve no doubt experienced it ourselves, there is really truly no place like home.

When I was sick, all my mom had to do was put her hand on How COVID has affected us
