Linda, thank you for reaching out to us. I would think about what your grandchildren like to do as well as what you think you could do. Maybe meet for a day and do something fun together which gives you an opportunity to build and share your legacy of faith with them. You may need to have just a couple cousins over at a time. If they are older have them help you. Do not stress over doing what someone else has done. This article is to get your thinking about what could you do to build faith and fun over the summer.

Let me see what I can find out. Were these prayer cards sold at one of the booths in the resource center?

All these ideas are top-notch, but I can’t fathom handling it all on my own, even though my heart desires it! What adaptations could you suggest for us single grands?

It was a very rewarding time with our grandchildren focusing on fun while learning about the Lord together building great relationships and being an impact in their world.

Way to go – thank you for your faith and being a trail-blazer in the grandparenting arena like Bill and Ann Parkinson!

I have 3 adult children with 13 grandkids. Every year for 12 years now I have held a week long “All Girl Grammy Camp” with girls ages 3-15. We do a Bible study every day with a craft project. In the afternoon we play a game or attend an event that further emphasis the topic. This year we also went to Noah’s Ark. Last year we went to The Holy Land in Orlando. The girls loved it. We have discussed topics from dating, pier pressure, blended family stories and what they want to be when they grow up. The bonding and memories are precious beyond words. They go home at the end of the week with a photo album of all we did together. And I get calls all year long with updates on their lives. Grandparents are vital to the family structure and Gods plan for spiritual guidance.

I have new grand babies and would like to have more cards printed with their names.

It sounds a lot like yours. We have 15 grandchildren ages 21-7 and they always look forward to it. We have a them, do a craft, take a field trip and have 4 sessions that they open there Bibles and we read truth to them as it relates to our theme. We both r in our 70’s and our energy level is changing but our grandkids and our children want us to keep going. We are giving them more leadership roles in the event.
