Introduction
We wrapped up 2024 online looking back on what God’s been up to at Prairie Lakes Church. As we look back, we have the opportunity to be reminded of God’s goodness and faithfulness that helps us then look ahead to the future with more confidence and optimism. As you meet with your group this week, you have an opportunity to look back at your own memorable moments together.
