A heavenly view

Small groups looked at a portion each of Matthew 8&9. It was part of Lesson #5. We did a fly-over of Matthew 5-10, looking at how Jesus interacted with those He was training to lead, so that we could learn. I was very impressed with the 4 groups' observations.


Thank you, so much to the ZBA for this kind gift.
For the attendees' attention, participation, and praise time that began each session.
I slept well in the guest room. I enjoyed the food. It was a great experience.
