Bill Smart’s Walk Across Texas!
April 29-May 16, 2015
Bill Smart is walking across Texas for the glory of God! Bill says, “The idea of walking across Texas was created from an exercise program created by Texas Parks & Wildlife, where I was employed for 32 years. The idea was to log enough miles walking or running that you would accumulate the equivalent distance across Texas. During this effort I thought “It would be neat to actually walk accross Texas”. So here we are.”
This campaign is an awareness and fund raising effort for Effects of Grace Ministries, Inc. to help spread the word of God through Bible based teaching of others.
