About One Love Ministries:

One Love Ministries is a diverse group of people that makes up a church with these things in common: We believe God’s love is greater than our differences, that worshiping God should be spiritual, inspirational, intelligent, and fruitful, which binds us together in the common goal of knowing God and desiring to make Him know.
