Friday’s Family Friendly Finds {March 20, 2015 edition}
Once each month, we take this space to thank our Patreon supporters. We are so thankful that these individuals support our work at A Legacy of Faith. We have said before that this is something we greatly enjoy doing, but it does take money to run all the things associated with A Legacy of Faith. The helps of our supporters is very much appreciated.
Those who contribute at least $5 each month to our work are Debbie Hallman, Janis Taylor, and Faapisa. For their contributions each month, we say a heart-felt “Thank You!”
Now, on to our family links for this week.
