“We ought to always give thanks to God for you, brothers, as is right, because your faith is growing abundantly, and the love of every one of you for one another is increasing.” 2 Thessalonians 1:3 This verse stuck out to me the other day, and it has become my prayer for this team as we continue to grow and learn more about each other.
