We’ve Jesus had that was definitely no April Fool – a message of love for spent Lent preparing for Easter – some have given something up, all, a message of hope for the world, that God so loved the world others have done something extra; I’ve been using the Church that he gave his only son………a son that gave his life as a sign of of England’s ‘Live Lent’ app that has provided a Bible reading God’s amazing love for us all.
