Anna gritted her teeth and rehearsed acting brave and Willy sat still, not wanting to move. They could hear the deafening bombs being dropped from planes overhead and carpeting the city.

    When Church and Family Collide The giant, sea foam green building with the cross on the front is where I learned about myself and spent the first half of my life. The last time I went to visit it was the year I started high school. The hallways that echoed with my laughs and the memories of my childhood now looked so small.
