"Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." - Ephesians 4:32

Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins. - 1 Peter 4:8

"Though the sorrow may last through the night, joy comes in the morning." - Psalm 30:5

Ecuador was still in recovery following February's flood when the #coronavirus hit, and all efforts involving rebuilding came to a grinding halt. This #pandemic is earth-shattering. Please pray for our partners as they search for ways to help Ecuador during this chaotic time!
