I still can work with denominational churches if they do not make this their main theme but place Jesus over their denomination. I have attended and completed with honors a one year bible college.

Aloha from Hawaii,
I am a former MK and PK. I have started a small nonprofit called His Majesty’s Services for Lay Mission. I had help form a Baptist Church in Maine. I have been struggling with asking for help from organizations called Churches knowing we God’s people saved by Grace are the true church. I also am struggling within myself wondering if I am to trust God for my daily bread or us the system we invented, which has quite large similarities with earthly run businesses.
