Grace Prep High School
I am thankful for Grace Prep Christian High School here in State College, PA.

Sunday’s Spiritual Spin: Mother’s Day
unday’s Spiritual Spin I am thankful for My Mom! But then, who isn’t? Thankful for MY mom, I mean. Of course, the majority of my vast and valued audience loves their own mothers. All I can say is that if you’re not thankful for my mother, it is simply because you don’t know her. Mother’s Day: […]
