Inspired by the Faith of Our Ancestors

"As we ponder our spiritual ancestral lineage and legacy, we must begin to ask ourselves how we are using our freedom and how it can be used to help others. How are we creating a spiritual legacy that will source, resource, and inspire future generations? How can we remember who we really are and who we have come here to be? Let’s begin listening to the ancestors as we experience and exercise our faith and freedom."
