We live as an active believing Christian community. Affirming one another and living the Greatest Commandments of the Law of the Gospel given by Jesus Christ known as the two Commandments of Love. Matthew 22: 37-40 “You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments."
