Reflection from the President
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine grower. He removes every branch in me that bears no fruit. Every branch that bears fruit he prunes to make it bear more fruit." John 15:1-2
….As much as we would like to keep the vine the way it is – pruning is a pathway to fruitfulness.
