Send us a textThanks for joining us today! How many of you know how to hold a grudge? Grudges hold you in the past, focused on something that upset you. Joseph's brothers were worried that he would hold a grudge against them because of how awful they were to him. But Joseph's answer was one of forgiveness, love, and care.  Let us all strive to follow Joseph's example. Remember that retribution is God's territory. Let us all work to stop the cycle of hate, and share forgiveness, grace, and love with everyone in our lives! If you're local, come on by! We're located at 3800 Hondo Pass, El Paso, TX 79904.

Am I in the place of God? 20 You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives. 21 So then, don’t be afraid. I will provide for you and your children.” And he reassured them and spoke kindly to them.
