Christmas Day: A Three Course Meal for the Homeless!

As part of our Celebration, we focused on bringing the spirit of Christmas – God’s Love – to as many as possible. We put up an invite sign on our gate and served a special three course meal – complete with dessert – to anyone who came in.
Another team packed many trays of food into a car, and drove around the neighborhood, serving food to those in need. The reactions were so beautiful! We are so grateful to have been on the ground, spreading Christmas Love to these dear ones.
We also took a meal to the local police station; a small way to thank these community servants for all they do throughout the year. What a Merry Christmas Day!

A Very Special Sunday School!

A wonderful Christmas experience came for 91 dear children from our Sunday School in Morningstar informal settlement! They were so excited as soon as we unloaded the lovely sponsored treat bags; and even much more upon seeing the variety of toys for younger and older!

After a prayer, we began giving out the gifts! Each child went home with a pack of treats and a toy of their choosing! How lovely to see their shocked faces and smiles as they received the goodies, and wave goodbye with a reminder to each one that “Jesus Loves you!”

Christmas Comes Early for Women in Crisis

Never before have we seen such joyful reactions to the gifts we brought for the women at this crisis centre! (at which we hold a weekly Bible study)

In their Christmas hamper was a box of chocolates, some inspirational reading material, some other goodies, and a brand new handbag!

Each bag was chosen with a specific lady in mind, and they turned out to be even more perfect than we could have hoped for! One lady exclaimed that she had actually looked at the EXACT bag she was now given in a store the week before – yet knew she could not afford it. Another loved the design and style of the bag she received. And so it went for each one. What we could never have known in such detail, God did; the desires of every heart. Seeing their reactions, there was no doubt about how thrilled they were!
