"'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbour as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."
Matthew 22:37-39
Quote of the Month

"We want to build a culture of service in this community, where we all start looking out for each other. Jesus explained that the ones who give are the ones who are most blessed. This community will really be blessed when serving each other becomes normal practice."
