Day 8: Allen for the Jakubauskas Family… Forty to Forever…

Today we are rallying for little Allen whom the Jakubauskas family already consider one of their own. He’s waiting for them to back and bring him home. They are travelling soon. Please go over to Forty to Forever and help them raise those last amounts they need.
Today’s Lent Devotion focuses on whether or not the thing we fast from is for our own good or is it really making us look to Jesus… have a read and think about it… syc
