...Third Grade Bibles...


...yesterday was Reformation Sunday...Most Protestant Christians observe Reformation Day in honor of Martin Luther and other Christians who worked to remove false doctrine and destructive practices from the Christian church...

...and one of the things that we always do on Reformation Sunday is give Bibles to the parents of our Third Graders...who then place them in the hands of their children as they promised they would when they had their child baptized...

...the Bibles are engraved with their names and have a beautiful presentation label in the front...copied from the Bible that my parents gave me as a child...

...it's so much fun to watch the joy of these young ones...and to remember our own joy when our first Bible was placed in our hands...

  1. That's unreal! The inside of that Bible is the exact duplicate of my Father's childhood Bible from the Lutheran church!
