For the little ones at Jack and Jill creche, Christmas came early this year! In fact, for some of them, the sad truth is these might be the only presents they get. So we are happy to have been able to do this event! We arrived, and set up some music, then played several games with all the kids, with their laughter and sometimes shrieks of joy filling the room! Then, we told the story of Christmas and explained the reason for it all, and 27 of the children accepted Jesus as their Forever Friend and personal Saviour! Hallelujah!

And there’s more! Each child received a personal gift, tailored to their gender and age, and with their name written on it! So excitedly were the presents opened, the toys gasped at, and the playing commenced! Smiles exchanged from one child to the other as they compared gifts, or set up a group to play together with dolls, cars, tools, or whatever they had. How lovely to be able to see their faces, and know that THEY KNOW that Someone loves them this Christmas season.

As a bonus, each of the staff members were given a Christmas hamper with some staples and goodies to enjoy! They told us tearfully “nobody ever brings US something.”
We were so touched, and grateful to bring them – who work so willingly to teach the children- some Christmas cheer as well.
