WHAT PEOPLE SAY
RAY & CATHY CAMPBELL
Why should we spend an entire Saturday learning about grandparenting when we already have seven grandchildren? That's what we were thinking when someone asked us if we were going to the Grandparenting Conference. Surely we knew what we needed to know. I can confidently say that thought couldn't have been further from the truth. Once we read about the prestigious speakers and their qualifications, we realized we'd be missing out if we didn't attend. The conference opened our eyes to the challenges our grandchildren will face in today's world educationally, spiritually, physically and emotionally. And boy, were we ever behind the times! We learned the importance of a grandparent's role in the family and the affect our prayers and our life experiences will have. More importantly, we were inspired to take advantage of every opportunity to encourage and minister to our grandchildren that Jesus Christ loves them unconditionally, has a plan for their lives and has given them the Holy Spirit to guide and depend on along the way. If, as a grandparent, you thought your parenting responsibilities were finished, this conference will show you there are so many more great opportunities for God to use you and how He desires for you to be a blessing to your family no matter your location or time limitations. We urge you to attend this conference. Like us, we know you will be encouraged and amazed!
