Christmas Basket Project
 
We are in full swing with the Christmas Basket Project.  We have been counting children, calculating ages for the toys, and adding up the families, so that no one is left out. You could say that we've made our list and checked it twice!  It is a big task but so very rewarding to hear the stories and see the faces.  It was said last year in one village that the street was empty all day, the children were inside playing with their new toys!  How sad would it be if our families had nothing to eat this Christmas?  If there wasn't one single toy for our children?  That is why we do this, it is a lot of work and is a big expense but it is worth it all.  Besides, last year many gave their hearts to Jesus when they came for their baskets. 
 
Some have written asking how to contribute to this outreach to the feeding center children and their families.  First of all, thank you so very much!  The mothers are excited about being able to give their families something special to eat on Christmas Eve.  Otherwise many would barely be able to eat at all that day.  The children are all excited because they know that last year they all received brand new toys!  We know that God will bless you and make you prosper this Christmas for the kindness that you show and have shown toward these desperately poor families.
