Indiana—“Would you like to answer a Bible question?” This was the challenge fair-goers heard from Madison (Ind.) Church representatives at the Jefferson County 4-H Fair.

Janelle accepted the challenge, answered the question, and received her prize. The next evening, Janelle and her mother returned to the booth. The mother remarked, “Janelle’s been talking about this all day, so we just had to come back!” And come back they did! They were regular visitors at the booth for several nights.

The questions visitors answered were categorized—easy, medium, and difficult. Several parents volunteered to help their children with the answers, and they also found some of the questions quite challenging. The children enjoyed trying to get points by tossing bean bags at the “Jesus Loves Me” smiling faces.

The adults were attracted to The Passion of Love display backdrop, and 220 books were distributed. A nutritionist was interested in the food pyramid display and requested further information. Vibrant Life magazines were popular handouts, along with the Creation Health book. Each evening, a vegetarian food product was featured and we discovered Grillers and Chicken Nuggets were the most popular!

The Madison Church appreciated several boxes of food donated by The Kroger Company, and members praise the Lord for the opportunity to interact with the community through the booth at the fair!
