:: 48-Hour Giveaway: Imagination Station Books #1-3 (10 Winners)

We're big Adventures in Odyssey fans here so I told them we would be happy to participate in their summer A Call to Serve challenge designed to challenge your children to serve others.

Here are the details:

This summer, Adventures in Odyssey is joining with Christian bookstores across the country, inviting kids to participate in a Summer of Service. They're promoting the biblical message, "When you serve, everybody wins," encouraging kids to serve their families, their communities, and their world.

Whether it's baking cookies for an elderly neighbor or putting together a care package for missionaries overseas, kids will discover that serving can be a blast!

How the A.C.T.S. (A Call to Service) challenge and contest works:

Kids who join A.C.T.S. can pick up a service log and collect fun character stickers for hours served at participating bookstores throughout the summer, or download a serving log online at whitsend.org. At the end of the summer, kids can record and upload a short video telling how they serve and why they'd like to become an Adventures in Odyssey Ambassador.

A hundred winners will get the brand-new AIO Album, and after online voting, two grand prize winners (one boy and one girl) will get to travel on an exciting Good-Goers Mission Based Adventure trip to another country with a parent!

The out-of-country destination will be announced on a live podcast May 22—hosted by AIO actors Katie Leigh (Connie) and Chris Anthony (Chris)—which you can watch at whitsend.org/acts. You don't want to miss it!

You can download a free ACTS Summer of Service Kit here. And also, don’t forget to download your free copy of the Imagination Station Voyage With the Vikings.

Click on the graphic below to enter to win a free copy of books #1-3 of our family’s favorite Imagination Station series. 10 winners will be chosen and posted on Tuesday. This giveaway ends Friday, June 21, at 11:59 pm CST.
