"Si la conduite au bord de l'espoir, et à la fosse de désespoir, accorde-moi la grâce de tomber dans Ses Bras." translated from a Puritan Prayer... "If driven to the verge of hope, and to the pit of despair, grant me the grace to fall into His arms."

A Memorable Summer Gathering

On July 2nd, at Chisolm Park in Hurst, the servants of God from the Ivory Coast in Texas held the 2nd annual picnic. Ivorians from all over the state of Texas gathered with friends and family members for great food, worship, games, music and fellowship.

Here are some of the wonderful cooks that served us. They really sacrificed in the extreme heat!
                                 Esther Lepohe, an amazing cook with a smile!
