What They Say
“The speaker that spoke to my heart directly was Ada. She really spoke about how no matter what you’re going through, God loves you and sees you. Even when you’re in a bad situation, God does not think of you and think of how He will put His daughter in a bad situation, but God can bring a good thing out of that bad situation”
Attendee, The Narrow Way Girls’ Summer Camp
