Happy Father’s Day

Today, we give thanks to God for fathers — a father who walks in faith and leads with love.

“The righteous man walks in his integrity; his children are blessed after him.”

— Proverbs 20:7

Feliz Día del Padre

Hoy doy gracias a Dios por ti, un padre que camina con fe y guía con amor.

“El justo camina en su integridad; sus hijos son benditos después de él.”

— Proverbios 20:7
