Abyssinian Women: United in Love, Service and Witness

 

My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. -Colossians 2:2-3 NIV
