So many people are lonely, sad, or hungry at Christmas, and it is a time of year when such lacks are most keenly felt. So, as part of our Celebration, we focused on bringing the spirit of Christmas – God’s Love – to as many as possible. It was our gift to Jesus and others! We prepared a WHOLE LOT of chicken, gravy, rice, and desserts, to bring to those less fortunate. A friend gave all kinds of lovely plates, containers, and cutlery for the food, while a company donated potato, pasta, and fruit salad, and some friends even brought over several trays of delicious home-cooked food to add to the meals! God bless everyone who had a part in this!
Some of us packed many trays of food into vehicles, and drove around the neighborhood, giving out food to those in need, together with cool drinks and Gospel tracts. The reactions were so beautiful; with many of the men and women hardly believing the whole stack of main course, salads, and pudding was for them!
We also took a meal to the local police station and fire station; a small way to thank these community servants for all they do throughout the year. We are so grateful to have been on the ground, spreading Christmas Love to these dear ones. What a Merry Christmas Day as so many received a delicious meal, a “Jesus Loves You”, and a Gospel message.
