Teachers comment on the seminar “Adventure With The Bible”
at the city of Rezekne, February 28, 2012

“Instructors gave us a very good example how we can teach the Bible stories – how we can do it in an interesting way, with enthusiasm and delight! The materials that we received will be very useful in our further work. This is the second “Bible Adventure” seminar I have attended (the first was about the Old Testament) and now I more clearly understand how this method works.”

“The seminar was perfect! The same can be said about its leaders. Thank you for this seminar! I spent a very nice day – useful and unusual – with ‘miracles’ that gave me positive emotions for my future work.”

“Children enjoy this method. It is interesting and fascinating to them. They can move around, it is not boring. They have a lot of questions afterwards. But we should keep in mind that teacher has to prepare the lesson.”

“It is very important to receive the food. But food did not last long and can be consumed very quickly. Who can give hope to people and help them to overcome difficulties of life? It is the Word of God that can change their lives.”

With all my heart I say thanks to you for this gift. It means a lot for this lady. There are many problems and difficulties in our deaconal work therefore such a support from the Latvian Bible Society is very much needed.”

“The administration and prisoners of the Matiss prison in Riga are very grateful for your support to our musical show “Birthday in Bethlehem”. Thank you for beautiful books and postcards!”

“Today we received donation of books from Latvian Bible Society. We were very surprised and grateful! It comes just in time because only Bible in our library was lost for several months. We were quite confused – Christian would not steal it, but why non-Christian would take away? Anyway, we hope this missing Bible will be a blessing to the person who took it away from the bookshelf. But your donation is very much needed. We are not too big optimists to think that every child will read Children Bible and other your books. But we hope those who will read these books will benefit from the Water of Life.”

Gunta Grandāne and Antra Galiņa,
employees of the Children Library in Pļaviņas, 2006

“We express gratitude to the Latvian Bible Society for donation of books for chaplaincy of our hospital.”
