“Our family had a tremendous opportunity serving together in the Bahamas this past April. It was an amazing experience, serving others less fortunate than ourselves and joining with Karazim Ministry, who is doing this on a daily basis - what a perspective check for us all! We look forward to serving in this way again and feel this experience was one of the best gifts we could ever offer to our children!”

Scott & Sally Livingston - Leah, Andrew, & Sarah
