The place or circumstances where you were found do not define you. You are defined as a loved and precious child of God! The fact that my diamond ring was in the trash doesn't remove its worth! Nothing removes the sentimental value I have for it, although I found it buried in the trash. However, after I found it, somehow, it became even more valuable to me! I cherish it even more now.

Monday April 21, 2024 broke our hearts. Words cannot capture the waves of sadness, confusion, anger and other feelings we are wading through. The horrific tragedy that took place at Wiley Elementary School on that day shook us all and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.
