My object is my great grandmother's Bible, given to her for Christmas in 1930. It was made in Baltimore Maryland. It’s very important to my dad because it is given to him after my great grandmother died – One of the only things he still has left of her. The Bible is very important as well because it shows my religion. It also symbolizes our salvation by God in Christ. It means a lot to our family because it shows God‘s promise to us throughout generations not only in my family but anyone’s family. That’s why this Bible is very important to me, my family, and my culture because it reminds us of our family and we are we will always be with each other.

Place(s): Baltimore, MD
