Is it a youth small group leader who helped you through a rocky patch in high school? Is it a Stephen Minister who listened to your grief when everyone else had moved on? Is it your friend who mentors a woman who is learning to read so she can better her life for her kids’ sake? We want to hear about the heroes God has used in your life. Email your story idea to Carol Bumbalough, cbumbalough@bumc.net. We will be sharing stories in various ways and times from May 10 thru June 16.
