SL Giving: God's We Love Deliver
I recently heard a great, goose bump story of generosity. A friend attended a birthday party at which many speeches were given. In gratitude for the kind sentiments bestowed on her, the birthday girl stood up and said that for every person who made a speech, she would make a contribution to the charity of… Continue reading SL Giving: God's We Love Deliver
