Celebrating grandparents
by Women of the ELCA

wordpress.redirectingat.comToday is Grandparents Day. It’s a real holiday, did you know? There’s a lot of celebrate about grandparents, to be sure, so we’ve collected up some great posts from our blog archives, posts that remember and celebrate Nana, Grandma, PopPop, Grandpa, Mimi and all those other special people who fit that definition of grandparent. Google “influence of grandparents” and you’ll find all kinds of references to the important bond between children and grandchildren. Lists like “10 things grandchildren can learn from their grandparents” abound. In the blogs below you’ll find many references to the important role a grandparent can have in the faith development of a child.

  • Grandparents raising grandchildren
  • The gift of faith and fashion
  • Sophia and Violet
  • My great-grandfather’s pulpit
  • We are soul sisters
  • Of God and Grandma
  • What is there about soap?

Did one or more of your grandparents help shape your faith life?

Just as my daughter recognized herself in the historic election of America’s first female, Black, and Indian-American vice president, I long to recognize myself in the God-language of the church. christiancentury.org/article/… pic.twitter.com/IlZUfoOjnG
