Got something to say?
I think these courses are incredibly “life giving”. They possess the most basic ministry tools in running youth ministry and being Anglican.I might even go as far to say that they provide ammunition for Church leadership and worship. I applaud its initiators & facilitators and hope that our church reliases its need and relevance.
Thank You TORU.
It can only get better…….
We are really going from Strength to Strength…..
