The first picture is Seal Cove Wesleyan Church, and that was the church Angela’s mother grew up in and the church where Angela attended…

The church!  When you think of the church, what is it you think of? Maybe it’s Cornerstone. This might be where you met Jesus, where you were baptized and where you have grown in your faith.

And just like that, everything changed. I wonder what they were thinking about on that day?  Had they gathered together to celebrate the holidays or were they making plans for the future?  We don’t know where they were, why they were there or even who all was there.  But we do know that what happened…
