The God of Israel is good to me and I am thankful for all of his many blessings especially, the house of Israel. I am thankful for the opportunity of working with Rev. Esther Callaway and the current staff members of the Y.O.P. that the God of Israel has blessed me with. I enjoy spending time with family; friends and I especially enjoy seeing happy children. |
