The present pandemic, caused by the COVID-19 virus, has affected the ability to travel and placed restriction on large meeting, therefore, we are holding our Annual MARCHA Meeting ONLINE on a one day, three hours, format.
LAMENTO EN COMUNIDAD: CAMINO A LA ESPERANZA
“Recuerdo mi tristeza y soledad, mi amargura y sufrimiento; me pongo a pensar en ello y el ánimo se me viene abajo. Pero una cosa quiero tener presente y poner en ella mi esperanza: El amor del Señor no tiene fin, ni se han agotado sus bondades. Lamentaciones 3:19-22
Lament in Community: A Way to Hope
“Remember my trouble and my traveling from place to place, the wormwood and bitter feelings. I remember it always, and my soul bows down within me. But this I remember, and so I have hope. It is because of the Lord’s loving-kindness that we are not destroyed for His loving-pity never ends.” Lamentations 3:19-22
WHEN: Friday, November 13, 200
TIME: 6:00PM to 9:00PM EST
