Asking for your help

Greetings from your friends at Hope Unites:

Over the course of the past several weeks, our building (Pastors Office, Meeting Space and Worship Area) has been burgularized.  The rash of thefts of Air Condtioners in the Orlando area has hit home.  We also lost television monitors, computers, musical instruments and audio equipment. 

If it is on your heart to help us out of this 'mess', know that your offering will be honored as sacred to us.  Thank you for considering helping us "Create the World in Which We All Want to Live"

YES I WANT TO HELP CREATE A WORLD IN WHICH WE ALL WANT TO LIVE! <<CLICK HERE PLEASE
