Why do you do it?
Because I'm passionate about reading and helping children to read/ improve reading and comprehension. A bonus is being able to share Bible stories.
Favourite Bible Verse?
I have many but these 2 spring to mind.
John 3 v 16
"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son that whosoever believes in Him will not persih but have everlasting life." Psalm 23
Why Is It Your Favourite?
John 3 v 16 - to me this sums up everything!
Psalm 23 - Reminds me of my mum and it is just beautiful.
How did you become a Christian?
I've been a Christian since childhood but my Christianity was reaffirmed when my son, who has special needs, was about 4 (10 years ago). My older children went to Revelations Playscheme and I took the younger 2 to Toddler Tent there. A member of the church was particularly supportive and through her I became friendly with others and then my husband and I did their Alpha Course and subsequently became members of their church.
