Hon Julian Fraser RA supports Religious Education in Schools
The Pentateuch is a compilation of a number of books in the Holy Bible made simple and suitable for the reading pleasures of young people.
Today September 23, 2014 as she along with Representative of the Third District Honourable Julian Fraser RA introduced and distributed the books to the children of the upper grade of the school, it was observed of that the children were patiently waiting their turn to be recipients of their personal copy.
“I tell my mother we will read it together because I saw her with one and she told me Ms Ayana was going to give us at school,” said one of the students to her peers.
In reply the female student said, “We do devotion but I will read mine every day.” The two girls challenged each other to see who was going to complete reading their copy first and be able to accurately tell stories captured therein.
It is that kind of response Ms Hull, Hon. Fraser and others who have been supporting the distribution are looking forward to.
In her brief words to the children of that school Ms Hull challenged them that reading certain stories in the Pentateuch would teach them a number of values; one being that of not being negatively influenced by their peers and the other being how they could, and why they should, hold steadfastly to their dreams.
Honourable Fraser commended her efforts as he told the students why he decided to support the initiative and how beneficial it will be to them, the children, once they put it to use as they should.
Principal of the school Ms Sybil S. Hodge said that with the book being a part of their library collection and in the hands of the students they would be required to use it as part of the school’s religious education programme.

Christian and born again Christian are two different things. Being a christian don't mean you can't stand up for what you believe in and express it.
