We are grateful to the people who fought and managed to save the chairs, PA System and some other equipment from the fire. > We stand today with our fellow Servant of God and the entire Awake Grace Ministries family during this time of loss. > We are not ignorant of the devices and schemes used by the enemy as he pounces on us trying to steal, kill and destroy. > We believe that God will restore all that was lost.
