🚨TEACHER REPORT🚨 A public school counselor is running a “Jesus and Donuts” program before school — using the school intercom to promote it, sending staff-wide emails about his ministry during the school day, and even selling “I ❤️ Jesus” lanyards on campus to fund events. The teacher who sent this in is terrified to report…

Good morning! ☀️ We’re grateful that more people across the country are paying attention to LifeWise.
