September 9 is Grandparents Day

Grandparents play an important role in households and church families–for an example, read about the Koska’s adventure. A new year at colleges and universities offers an opportunity to get to know a student. For those who are away from friends and family it means a lot to be invited to lunch after church.

Whether you are a grandparent to many, or have simply taken a young person under your wing, you are a vital source of care, warmth and God’s love.

What can you do to honor and delight in your grandchildren?
