I'm not an official member of GCT and I know Bishop doesn't know me and mother Porter didn't know me but, she always smiled when she saw me and would reach her hand out to shake mine (pre COVID) I always felt welcome. The entire Porter family and GCT family are in my prayers.

Blessings to you and your family
