We Need Your Support

When we were utterly helpless, Christ came at just the right time and died for us sinners. Now, no one is likely to die for a good person, Though someone might be willing to die for a person who is especially good. But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. Romans 5:6 (NIV)
