kathy!

so glad all went well yesterday!  God is good!  I know for my church, we 
have three flags in the front.  We have Jereusalem's flag, the US Flag, and 
in the senter we have a flag that was created i think to represent Christ. 
Don't ask me how... but this was how it was explained to me.  Still praying 
for you all!
