As we set out tables-full of food, treats, and toys- the men, women, and children of the Klipheuwel informal settlement listened to us explain the reason for our visit. ” It’s Christmas time, Jesus’ Birthday, and He is the only one who gives gifts to others on His special day. He is Love personified” After a prayer we proceeded to fill their bags with food and treats for Christmas, as well as giving a special toy and bag of sweets and snacks to each child.
Afterwards, all around us children were playing and parents were smiling – and we were grateful for the opportunity to help a little bit of Jesus’ love to come down for these dear people this Christmas.
