Do you remember the Flat Stanley Project? Where students would color a cut-out of Stanley and send him across the Nation on a tour with friends or relatives. The person receiving the Flat Stanley would take a picture with the cut-out doll and then send him back to the student, recounting Flat Stanley’s adventures along with the accompanying photo.

We are in the middle of a wild adventure with the  NIV Illustrating Bible from DaySpring   Two of the Illustrating Bible are traveling throughout the United States, making stops at individuals homes for journaling. Much like the Flat Stanley Project, this tour is exciting, fun and bringing joy to all who participate.

What makes it more exciting than Flat Stanley is that we’ve add the element of journaling with Jesus! 

So far, there have been eighteen stops in twelve states. Whoot! Whoot!! Pages have been completed by individuals, moms and daughters, grandmas and granddaughters, and a Bible journaling group from the First Congregational Church of North Brookfield, Ma. Here’s a complete list of the States the Bible’s have traveled through; Texas, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, California, Colorado, and Kansas.

Once the Bibles have completed their Nationwide adventure, we will auction them off as  fundraiser for Insight Women’s Center in Lawrence, KS.
