International Friendships, Inc. reposted this
“..How good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!“ -Psalm 133:1, Bible It was such a privilege and encouragement to spend some time with the Northwest Network of Churches (Columbus, Ohio) this past week for their kickoff of the annual ‘Love Our City’ community engagement week! (More at https://lnkd.in/gd-rj27Q) after beginning with a evening of vision and prayer for the week, they cleaned up the grounds of a local school, offered $1 to wash cars and pray with people, spent time with the elderly, and served ice cream while building relationships with hundreds of international students in partnership with International Friendships, Inc. (Columbus). All for the honor of God and the good of the community! “Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper.” - Jeremiah 29:7, Bible
