Being home from vacation is an awesome experience! New York is a wonderful place, but would anyone want to live there? The memories from vacation are terrific. Sometimes those memories look better in the rear view mirror than in the windshield. The same is with our memories of anything. Athletes often are far better in their memory than in reality. The old saying, “The older we are, the better we were,” has a lot of truth to it.
That same principle happens in church. When our children were little, that was “the good ole’ days” at LUMC. This week our Bible School will be a terrific time that your children will long remember. They’ll tell their children, “When I was a child in Bible School, our class met in the kitchen. We were always cooking up something!”
Many will also be saying, “That’s where I first learned about the Bible and Jesus.” If you have a child, grandchild, or a neighbor’s child that you really care about, this could be a turning point week for them. The key is you. Will you bring them?
By the way, all of you, duck in one morning this week Roam the halls, listen to the music, see the art work, watch the children. Stop by and see for yourself. Come into my office so I know you checked it out. Let me know what you think; tell someone else, also.
