A Line From Danny

In our ongoing attempt to keep up with what is happening in the lives of individual Christians, Framework Ministries needs your help in filling out the following personal survey and asking some or all of your church members to do the same. To get a broad cross section of the Christian community, we need as many individuals and churches represented as possible.

Probably the best way to do this is to copy and paste the survey into an email, fill it out, and then send it.
Email to dannyrvk@huntcom.net

Your help will be deeply appreciated.

God Bless,

Danny R. Von Kanel
