Hi ,
The new year is almost here, and I don't know
about you but the year seemed to just fly right on by. We had so many posts and emails over the past 12 months and millions of visitors to our websites. It's been a blessing to watch our traffic and subscribers grow, but most of all to receive the personal letters of encouragement and feedback on our resources. Reading that our games and printables have been used in Mission Trips and Outreach programs is humbling to say the least. I have seen photos of our Bible
resources in the hands of children all over the world and it always amazes me what a large and connected world we live in today.
I just wanted to send an email to say thank you for your encouragment, your prayers and your support. I started these websites almost 8 years ago and never expected such an outpouring of love and kindness and people
wiling to help. God has certainly paved the road ahead of me, and for us all. My favorite scripture and the one that hangs over my computer desk is from Jeremiah 29:11,
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a
future."
This truth has brought me through some of the most heartbreaking personal trials I've faced, and continues to bring peace and comfort to me year after year. If you haven't already I think this is a wonderful verse to commit to memory and to plant into your children's
hearts.
May you and your family be blessed in 2015,
In Christ,
Valerie
