The Future Is Bright

Yesterday (Sunday) was promotion Sunday for our children at the Aulne UMC. Just like in school when they move to new classes each year, they move to different Sunday School classes. We had 19 children from high school down to pre-school present (well, we actually had a couple more than that, but they were too shy to go to the front of the church) to be recognized by the congregation. We have at least a half dozen or more who weren't there who also attend. What a blessing for a small country church!!

My sincere thanks and admiration goes out to the teachers who are charged with showing and teaching these kids God's love and grace. I think back to my childhood days and remember the teachers who put up with our shananigans. They shared with us the same stories from the bible that we are passing on to our children today. What an awesome responsibility we have!!

Yes, the future looks good in Aulne. Just look into the faces of all these children and you know that GOD IS GOOD, ALL THE TIME, AND ALL THE TIME, GOD IS GOOD!!
