Gramma will turn 89 years old this August. She began teaching Sunday school when she was just 13 years old. The first class she taught was the 3 and 4 yr old class. A few years later she began teaching 5 and 6 yr olds.
Throughout the years she taught in the youth departments and in the adult departments. Most recently she was lead teacher for the Senior Adult Women's class. This Spring she resigned from full-time teaching in the Bible study Sunday school class. She is stepping down to become the substitute/asst. teacher at this time in her life.
I am so proud and thankful to be her granddaughter. Not because of her accomplishment in teaching Sunday school for 75 years (which ain't bad) but because she is a woman who seeks after God's heart. She is a woman of prayer. And she is a woman who loves the Lord with all of her heart, mind, and strength. She also happens to make the best biscuits and gravy.
