LENT DEVOTIONS

Devotions for Lent

Join Forward in Christ in meditating on God's Word this Lenten season. Each devotion offers you the opportunity to focus on a portion of Scripture, read a short devotional thought, and then close with prayer. More devotions will be available throughout the Lenten season.

Thank you to the South Atlantic District for allowing us to reprint these devotions.
