It is Family History Month

October is Family History Month, so it is a great time to gather your family stories and share them with your grandchildren. If you have an ancestor who was a famous author, came to the USA on the Mayflower, was a Native American, knighted in England or a member of royalty - tell your grandchildren. If you have an ancestor who was struck by lightening, survived a tornado or who took you fishing and sang funny songs - tell your grandchildren.

If you have old photos of your family (this photo is of my great-great-grandparents and my great-grandma when she was a girl), show them to your grandchildren. Sharing family history will help give your grandchildren a sense of who they are and where they came from.

Most importantly, share with them your family history of how God answered prayer - like the time He saved your grandparents from the tornado!

Any time is a great time to share your family history, but since October is Family History Month, why wait? Make time to share the family history!
