This past Sunday was a big one for our Charlie. He received his third grade Bible with the rest of his Sunday school classmates at their church in Rock Hill. Jeff & I, along with Meg and Little Hope, and Sherri, who happened to be in town for a visit, headed over to be there for the big day. Boo joined us for big church. It started out with a Pancake Blast for breakfast, & then we walked Charlie & Adam to their new Sunday school classes. AND we joined Andrew in his Sunday School class, Boo & Shea’s beloved Genesis Class that they have been members of their entire adult lives. Here is the poster that was outside Charlie’s classroom, welcoming him and his buddies…
The plate from the inside front cover of Charlie’s Bible. I’m not sure how long it has been a practice in the Methodist Church to give Bibles to third graders, but I know my children all got one, and my siblings and I all got one. I’ll have to check with Momma to see if she remembers if she did. Just a very special day.
