Family Reflection Video: Ancestors in the Faith

Family Reflection Video: Ancestors in the Faith

inspiration  |  family

You are part of a much larger family story, one that you can read about in the Bible.

 Over the centuries our ancestors, just like us, experienced conflict, happiness, loss, and joy. And they, too, had the care, protection and love of God.

Have you ever wondered how your ancestors responded to God’s care? Did they have similar faith journeys as you and your family? Talk with your family and if compelled, do some genealogical research on your ancestors.

Blessed are you who still keep faith in God … the God who keeps faith in you!
