Revelation 3:2
“Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God.”
1 Peter 4:10
“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.”
Connectors, we encourage you to use the following resources along with the gifts and relationships that God has given you to wake up our churches and Christians friends in the United States so that together we may strengthen what remains.
