MOTTO:
" Therefore take
no thought, saying what shall we eat? or what shall we drink? Or wherewithall
shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles seek for
your heavenly Father knouted that ye have need of all these things. But
seek ye first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness; and all these things
shall be added unto you "
(Matthew 6, 31-34) |
