MERCY & GRACE
Since 2006, What media and other social or civic advocates and organizations
fail to publicly notice or print j2j seeks to adequately fulfill such intent,
as to the matters of Government and Christianity,
which undermine and patronize the public trust and confidence
of the citizens of Florida and this nation's heritage.
We claim for spiritual, civic duty and the public interest
as our final authority in all matters of our ministries
