Before we get to this week’s stories, we want to take a moment to say THANK YOU for being a part of our #GivingTuesday campaign. Thanks to so many of you we were able to exceed our goal.

Without your support we would not be able to continue bringing you good news from Churches of Christ around the world.

We are grateful for your support.

If you were unable to participate in our #GivingTuesday campaign, but would like to make an end-of-the-year donation you can do so at christianchronicle.org/donate.
