Greetings,

It's been a few months since I invited you to participate with me in the 2023 Bible Challenge and I just wanted to see how things have been going. I pray the spiritual practice of reading scripture daily has enriched your life as much as it has mine. Remember, you can find all things 2023 Bible Challenge--including scripture plans for the next few months-- at www.mississippi-umc.org/biblechallenge.

Peace and blessings,

Bishop Sharma D. Lewis
