Sunday Announcements – March 25, 2018
- Holy Week offering: It is Restoration’s custom Maundy Thursday through Easter to donate all of our offerings to a cause or partner that is doing something vital in the Kingdom of God. This year, we are giving to the Anglican Relief and Development Fund for a project they are doing in Ghana to build a Youth Development Center. Restoration is excited to get to partner with this work. You can read more about it at ardf.org
