We thank Jon Dize for his tremendous work over the past ten years to create and build our successful LSGO. There is no question that God used Jon in amazing ways to launch and grow our LSGO. Please keep Jon in your prayers as he seeks new opportunities to make an impact in our world while serving God and others!
