LENTEN DEVOTIONS
SIGN -UP NOW!
| |
|
|
Our 2023 Lenten Devotional is coming soon! For the last 35+ years, the members of St. John’s have written wonderful, thoughtful devotions that enrich our daily lives throughout Lent. This year, we will need your help to continue this wonderful tradition. Please consider writing one or two short devotions to be included in our booklet. Our theme this year is, “Meeting with God”. In these devotions, we will go to the manger and to the cross; to the mountain top and the desert floor; along the road, among the ruins, and to refreshing oasis waters. Your devotions will invite us to encounter God wherever we are.
Here’s all you have to do to sign-up TODAY to write a devotion:
Click on the link below:

Follow the directions to select your date and verse. It’s that simple! You will receive an email from nancy.mayor@gmail.com with all of the details you will need to complete your devotion. All devotions will be due by Sunday, January 29.
Thank you so much for helping us to make this Lenten Devotional possible again this year!
