The Grateful Children of America - Contributors

Past generations have recognized the importance of using the occasion of historic anniversaries to raise up rocks of remembrance to the glory of God and His many providential blessings through the lives of our forefathers. This year of 2007, the grateful children of America are raising a monument in gratitude to the faithful providence of God in America’s founding and committing to raise up the next generation of grateful children. Many generations from now America will hold its 500th birthday. Lord willing, our descendants will be there to again celebrate God’s providence in American history. What will the legacy be that they uncover? One of the things that our great grand descendants will uncover is a time capsule laid specifically for them by the grateful children of another era. They will dig up, unseal, and open this time capsule filled with the names of their great-grandfathers and mothers who left a legacy of gratitude to the Lord and prayed for them that they would stand strong, persevere, and be preserved to again declare the faithfulness of God in their day.

The following is a list of “grateful children contributors”, those who have sent in their dollars, and prayers, that the monument would be erected. By God’s grace, on June 15, 2007 it was unveiled and dedicated at Ft. Pocahontus, before a reverent crowd of thousands. To all those who have contributed to this cause, thank you. May you be faitful to tell your future generations of the works of God, and to reassembel for the 500th anniversary of Jamestown in 2107, to unearth the time-capsule, and praise the name of Jesus Christ, on the banks of the James River.
