God Honoring Heritage

Grandpa and Grandma Great LOVE the Lord. It is evident in the way they talk, the things they do, the way they live, the way they serve, the way they love, and the way they raised their family. The have six children that are amazing men and women of God. Aunt Helen gives like no one I know and will be there to help you in seconds flat, she is always giving to someone and has a heart that just cares. Uncle Willard dedicated his life to God's work in Papua New Guinea serving full time as a missionary. Uncle Dennis loves God's people and jumps at any chance to help people and the church. My Dad- purely amazing- loves people through all he does for them, always wants to help and constantly puts the needs of others before himself. Uncle Phillip has such a tender heart and loves the Lord, he serves his church and family with such a great work ethic. Aunt Phoebe uses her life to serve God, she volunteers in any way she can, offers whatever she has and any ability she posses to give back to God. This is just a little glimpse of the offspring that has come from Verland and Lucille Benning. They are AMAZING. They have 21 grandchildren. And currently they have 31 great grandchildren, plus 3 on the way. They have been married for 64 years. When asked what advice they had my grandfather simply stated the best advice I have heard:

"Put the LORD first and He will take care of the rest!"

What an amazing heritage. We are blessed to be part of their legacy and what an amazing legacy they are leaving.

These are 18 of the great grandchildren with Grandpa and Grandma Great.
