Friends,
I just returned from spending a week as a counselor at a Christian camp up in the Adirondack Mountains. The boys learned of the Savior and His love for them while they were there. Many did not want to leave the last Friday morning. One 9-year boy cried Thursday evening because he did not want to go home. He came from a sad home situation in New York City.
While I was there, I lived with six 12-year-olds. In working and taking care of them, I was reminded of why my wife and I homeschool our girls. One of my boys made a comment to a friend of his that he studied 3 to 4 hours a day during the summer so that he could get into a good college some day. And he’s only 12-years old! It’s not just about educating our children, but the importance of spiritual training.
Let us remember that we are preparing our children to love and serve the Lord with all -their heart, with all their soul, and with all their mind. It’s not just an education of book learning but of their spiritual training as well. As you begin this new school year, let this be your goal and motive.
In His Service,
Rich Millward
President
