New Lenten Calendar
New Lenten Calendar! Five years ago, GWP produced a Lenten daily devotional calendar. Filled with facts and stories from around the world, scripture reflections, taxes and activities, this Lenten calendar brought the world's suffering and hope to your homes. This was quite an undertaking and a true labor of love for GWP. The Lenten calendar … Continue reading New Lenten Calendar
