We here at Renewing Hearts realize that so many of us have been impacted by the news in the past couple of days especially those near our headquarters in Central Florida.

Wow! Hard to believe that it has been 8 years ago the World Trade Center was taken out.
Do you remember that Day? What were you doing? What were you feeling as you watched those planes crash in the buildings that were so populated and well used? This was a landmark in time in America.
I remember [...]
