An East Texas woman’s heartfelt reminiscences of her childhood family church include vibrant congregational worship, prayer times at the altar, and dinner–on–the ground Sundays. Church meant belonging, love, and family. Her memories hearken back to a simpler time when faith was a way of life, Sundays were a day of rest, and church was the center of a family’s activities. Journal pages give readers an opportunity to document their own memories and leave a legacy of faith for the generations that follow.
Description
“I have wonderful, precious memories of the church of my childhood.” An East Texas woman gives us a warmhearted window into the church where her parents would take the family every time the door was open. Church was a family affair, with her uncle serving as the pastor and the extended family attending, a joyous place where the whole church family celebrated the occasions of life together.
As a young girl she napped on the old wooden pews, covered by a handmade shawl. She heard the rustling of the pages of Bibles turning, joined in singing the beloved hymns, and tasted favorite covered dishes at dinner-on-the-grounds Sundays. These fond memories bring us back to a simpler time when services did not have a time limit and people gathered at the altar to pray, meeting their Jesus there.
Karla Byrd shares her reminiscences of the depth and riches of the love, fellowship, and support of her childhood church that deeply rooted her faith. Each chapter in the book is complete with journal pages for readers to affirm their own faith by inserting their remembrances to leave a legacy for the generations that follow.
