Getting Your Children off to a "God-start" each day!

Recently a good cyberfriend of mine, Donna McDine (visit her blog - "Write What Inspires You") called my attention back to a recent press release from Mary's Lamb, Inc. Since God is working so quickly through me with various projects, I tend to forget my main purpose in all of this. (Right now I am trying to give books away to Iraq and Prisons, since they could be God's children who may be lost and needing comfort the most. AND you can imagine how hard it is to convince people why these adults might need a children's book!) But my main purpose in the beginning was to bring Jesus back into the public schools so we could protect our kids and make a safer place for them to learn.

This is the press release, in case many of you haven't read it, (grin) brings me back to understanding why I had the idea of the radio program "The J.C. Lamb Morning Show." See Below-



Press Release - "The Secret of Yahweh!"

Public Schools today: Are we sending our children off to war unarmed?

10 simple rules that can protect them at school

For Release in September / Back-to-School

Surveys show parents are concerned about the stress level of their children and what they are forced to deal with in public schools. Already frightened by what they hear and see in today’s world, they also face abusive bullying and negative peer pressure. All this stress is like sending them off to war unprotected and afraid. Just 10 simple rules in school, can lower our children’s stress level?

“The trauma suffered by children in other countries sickens Americans to the point of sending missionary relief.
What about this country? Who is taking care of our children? With our excellent media coverage, they’ve been exposed to kidnapping, school shootings, bomb explosions, and airplanes blowing up buildings, gang violence, child prostitution, drugs and war killings. Favorite television shows are no longer like “Leave it to Beaver” with no under-aged drinking or premarital sex, and many films add words not allowed on television because vulgarity sells. Good morals barely exist in public America and it shows in our schools. Children are the heartbeat of the world, growing into tomorrow’s leaders. They get strength in learning rules young.”

These words come from LeFerna Arnold Walch, member of the Institute of Biblical and Historical Studies in Addison, Michigan, CEO of Mary’s Lamb, Inc. and leading advocate for Christian curriculum in public schools.

Walch started her company to introduce J.C. Lamb, a twist on a favorite American nursery rhyme. Their mission is for the character to follow our children to school where…

• ADHD, obesity, learning disabilities, autism and handicaps limit children, inviting torment and teasing.

• The smart children are called “nerds” or “geeks” causing many children to fear success.

• Some have more material things than others, causing jealousy and resentment.

• Bullying and peer pressure can be very dangerous.

Walch claims the time is right for arming our children with American Christian history and bringing these ten rules back into our schools. Walch started Mary’s Lamb Publishing to release The Secret of Yahweh! now available through Ingram/Spring Arbor Books. The “Give & Share Book™” that introduces J.C. Lamb is a church tool designed to reach an estimated 100 million unchurched Americans. A hit at the 2008 International Christian Retail Show, the book is also receiving great reviews. Since the goal is for J.C. Lamb to make his way to school, Walch is already giving away free school supplies and working on a before school radio program called “The Morning Show with J.C. Lamb” –reading Christian children’s books and Bible verses using character voices while the children color downloaded illustrations.

Walch is an entertainer and speaker with both radio and television experience. She gives an informative and fun interview adding in the voice of J.C. Lamb.

Thank you SO much Donna for showing me this press release again. At Mary's Lamb, we have put out so many... I tend to forget what was said!

Let's all start getting our children off to school with a "God-start!" Rather it be with the new J.C. Lamb morning show, or with a Bible devotional of another sort. Let's give them the armor they need to get through a day in the life with other children.

It's a jungle out there!

Lamb Hugs,

Hi LeFerna...As I have shared with you and will share here now...even though The Secret of Yahweh! is written for children the book speaks to adult and children alike. What blew me away was that the scriptures that were taught to me when I was young were brought back to the forefront of my mind and memories of growing up while reading about J.C. Lamb and it has re-enforced what my parents always wanted to instill in their children. Unfortunately, as one gets older and they get tainted by society it is sometimes easy to forget the love of God. The message is universal.

Best wishes for success in getting the word out in prisons and Iraq.

Warmest regards,
Donna McDine
