This January, Joni and Steve will welcome their fifth child (and second son) into the world. All our prayers are with them through the remainder of this pregnancy. In the meantime, Joni, may you indulge every craving, from pickles to hot fudge sundaes!
Have a blessed week, friends!
Even the excitement of a new school year can be overshadowed by the uncertainty of academic challenges, meeting friends, and settling into a new routine. In our home, we ease the transition with this little prayer. We hope you'll find that it bolsters the spirits of your little scholars-in-progress:
Father, we thank you for the opportunity to begin this new school year, and we ask that you bless the students, faculty, and the student families that make our schools great places. We pray that You will guide us in all ways, so that we will seek Your will in everything that we do. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Have a blessed start to the school year, friends!**Prayer written by David Bennett
While setting up craft time at our basement table, I flipped through a book of construction paper. There were pages in red, orange, yellow, green, pink, black, and white. Red was the preferred color today--- the kids said it reminded them of the yummy cherry snowcones at our church's festival this summer. All of the different colors reminded me that it is time to announce the winner of the Wee Believers™ coloring contest! Talk about a close race--- we were dazzled by this summer's entries! In fact, with a good-looking frame, each of these would make spectacular wall art for a formal living room! After serious deliberation, we are happy to announce the following winners (with winning artwork featured above):
Emmanuel - Age 4
Ellie - Age 7
Gabe - Age 10
And the overall winner is....(drumroll, please!)Owen - Age 6
Congrats, wee artists! We will be in touch with you to award your well-earned Lil Prayer Buddy™. Have a blessed week, friends!
School books aren’t the only texts that should get protection in a special bag! My Bible Bag™ keeps a children’s Bible or Missal safe from the elements, while displaying a dove emblem and colorful design. A perfect companion (complete with an adorable lamb top!), My Bible Bookmark™ encourages young readers to explore God’s Word and marks up to four different pages of interest.
As back-to-school shopping goes into high gear, remember these tools to keep faith-centered learning fresh and fun! Have a blessed week, friends!

Hear our southern drawl as Wee Believers greets you with a "Hey y'all!" from the Atlanta International Gift & Home Furnishings Market!!!
This is our first official "gift" show and we are excited by the results--- we have met a lot of great people (including our booth neighbors) who have shared many tips and lots of advice. We plan to store all this new info in our thinking caps, as we brainstorm what we can do to make our products better and more accessible to our customers. Godspeed to the Abdalla family as they make the long drive back to Indiana later this week! Have a blessed week, friends!
