Adding a story to the collection:

My collection focuses on the human element in moments of learning. I'm not interested in the descriptions of programs or the gathering of statistics. Others can do that, and have.

I want us to share those moments, small and large, incidental and profound, in the class room or anywhere else, where we know learning has taken place in a way that honor's God.

If you have a story to share I would like to be the vehicle for making the story known. Send it to me at donr2362@united.edu.

The stories are subject to editing, may appear on this web site, may be published in a book, and will be shared anonymously.

Please help to share these encouraging and inspiring moments with others.

Welcome to the Story Collection

The index on the left will lead you to separate stories told to me during my current collecting of stories that inspire church educators - be they teachers, parents or students. The index of stories is included on each page so you can read the stories in any order.

You can add your story to the set by sending it by email to me at donr2362@united.edu. Submission of a story gives me the right to edit it, put it on this web site, and include it in any book that may result from this collecting process. Stories are published in an anonymous manner.

More stories will be added from time to time so come back - and let me hear from you.

NOTE: Due to a change in our ISP, all of the pages in this web site were assigned new URLs on Sept. 4, 2002. If you have bookmarked an individual story, you will need to click on the link on the left and bookmark it again.
