“During the trainings in different parts of Georgia it was encountered the fact that there was few or no Sunday schools around. As YBC books are specially designed for Sunday schools (i.e. the explanation of church services, prayers, creating special religious atmosphere for children, etc.), the idea came to assist in opening such schools. We had two goals in mind: 1) to have those schools opened, to assist those who desired to do this work but had not enough funds for it; 2) observe the educational process and see how the books work. (It is necessary for us while preparing stories about the children.”
