OR a week of laughter, various outdoor activities with child AND adult participation, a Christian "ranch" where everyone has a bed and fields to run in and explore as well as a fishing pond and a "craw dad" creek. That best describes the Morgan Family Reunion 2016 held at Koinania Valley Ranch near Black, Missouri, with 35 in attendance!
God richly blessed our family as we gathered to remember our parents, Clyde and Rozella Morgan and the heritage they passed on to we three girls: Nancy, Marlene, and Jane Ann Morgan (Stall, Thompson, Ricmond).
When I think of our family I am reminded of Psalm 103:17-18
"But from every lasting to everlasting the Lord's love is with those who fear him, and his righteousness with their children's children with those who keep his covenant and remember to obey his precepts."
I continually pray that our children and grandchildren and future great grandchildren and so on "down through the ages" will keep God's covenant and remember to obey ALL of His precepts!
Don't overlook the importance of family reunions! They establish healthy family relationships and are a means of sharing family history stories.
Family relationships are not always easy but they ARE always important and worth the effort.
Family traditions - such as fun family reunion activities - will make a positive difference in your family that will last for generations.
