The Waltons1971

Narrator:
[narration as John 'John Boy' Walton, Jr. reading from his journal] The pattern of our lives was broken by the war and the old ways of the past became less a part of us when we returned home. So long as our mother and grandmother were there to shepherd us, the church was central to our lives. But without them on the scene, some of the family found it easy to backslide, and as interest in the church slipped away, it didn't seem possible that events would join to bring them back again.
