180 Vacation Bible School children donate 2,500 books through Read Georgia

One hundred eighty children in Vacation Bible School at Ivy Creek Baptist Church, Buford, Georgia, donated 2,500 books through Read Georgia, an initiative aimed at helping disadvantaged children learn to read while introducing them to Christ, the Christian Index reported.

Lorna Bius, a mobilizer for Mission Georgia, said the generosity of the Ivy Creek children will pay educational and spiritual dividends. “This simple effort is a way the church is showing their love for the community,” Bius said.
