Project FAITH-BOOK
CHALLENGE #1
Welcome Fellow Project Faith-Book Friends!!!
I am SO excited to
introduce this area of Scrap Booking to you, and I pray that it is enlightening
and encouraging to all of you!
I have had many of you
ask me “What is Project Faith-Book”? And after much prayer and thought this is
what I have put together.
Faith booking is an important part of scrap
booking our heritage! Even if you are new to scrap booking you will
agree it is the best way to preserve
memories of vacations, birthdays, new additions to the family, and other
special events in our lives. Just ask anyone who scrap-books. You
will find that activities and special times with family and friends are the
biggest reason for scrap-booking. With Project
Faith-Book the focus is on our spiritual journey and the Faith heritage.
Which we want for those who are here now and those who come behind us to
remember! Project Faith-Book is putting
the face of God on our scrapbook pages. As believers, we, like Jacob, see
the face of God in our everyday lives during our everyday activities (Genesis
32:30.)
Project Faith-Book is basically combining our
beliefs and experiences with God and the memories we leave for our
children, grandchildren, and so on, (you get the picture right?) using scrap booking. What greater
legacy could we leave?
We will be creating an
actual Faith-Book aka scrap-book. That is the reason I mentioned your choice of
Albums. We will be doing different projects
each challenge to build on our Faith and to scrap our memories. There will be
discussions and comments on the Face Book page to encourage, motivate, and help
each other along the way. Keep in mind this is a Christian project and should
be treated as such. We as Daughters of the King of Kings are above what is
improper and displeasing to Jesus. We are Children of a Great God and should
present ourselves in that manner.
Regardless of your scrapbook style, if faith is
an important part of your life then you will want to
preserve
this for future generations. Let’s begin today to capture those moments when we
feel God’s presence in our lives and around us in every day beauty and
awe.
