Recently, Hope City partnered with other local ministries for our annual car show. Many from all over Kansas City brought their classic cars. We also had a hydraulics competition to see which car could bounce the highest! We served food to all who came and had a fun bouncy house for the kids (that since […]
Recently, Theresa had the opportunity to help a friend and co-worker write a book that is coming out soon about his journey from prayer to doing justice in the nations of the earth.
