Four Seasons
A card deck inspired by the beauty of God's creation and our school’s changing campus scenes
The Story
Diana is a shutterbug and loves to take pictures around our beautiful campus here in Yantai, China. So Tobin decided to put some of those beautiful scenes and images into a deck of cards. But because Tobin doesn't know how to keep things simple, he also created the cards with thematic Scripture verses. The list of verses and themes can be downloaded below, and included with the list are some suggested activities for parents and teachers.

FAQs
Why did Tobin and Diana make these cards?
We wanted to support our niece's family ministry in Italy so we created these cards as a form of fundraising to accompany the book, Jonathan's Big Adventure, for the Kickstarter event. Rather than just sending money to the family, we wanted to multiply the blessing by creating these cards for families around the world and especially families associated with our lovely school and in turn multiply our gifting. We have been blessed through this endeavor and hope many others will also be blessed by these cards.
Who took photos?
Diana Holden captured scenes around our school grounds here in Yantai, China.
How were cards made?
Tobin carefully selected images, designed each card, and had them printed them into a deck. Any errors or problems belong to Tobin.
