Late yesterday, we learned that Facebook would no longer be able to support sending free updates through Facebook Messenger. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and disruption this has caused.
Because of this disruption, we have worked to find an additional way to support a daily message update at no cost to you. To receive the Lenten Devotional, written by the Rev. Dr. David Wendel, it is now possible to subscribe via daily text message or email.
- To receive the daily message with Scripture passages and Lenten Devotional: A Lenten Walk Through The Word, please text: ReadingTheWord to 24251
- To receive a daily email with Scripture passages and Lenten Devotional, please visit: http://callingpost.site/ReadingTheWordofGod – scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the box that says “sign up now.” (Note – if you wish to receive only an email, do not enter your phone number on this form.
