Hey Men - Are you hoping to live this Lent more intentionally? Me, too! Please consider joining me for the Exodus 90 Lent program. It is a call to men to live, not just Lent, but all of their lives, walking with God and other men to become more of what God calls them to be. Whether you are single, married, widowed, old, young, or in-between, growing closer to God this Lent is a fantastic decision. Please let me know if this sounds like something you would like to join in by calling me at 319-610-0832, or if email works better at: c_evans72@msn.com.
