It is with much excitement and thankfulness that we want to tell you about the first Christmas party. It went great! The ladies did a good job of having the food ready on time; the discipleship team did an awesome job and the kids behaved their very bests! The weather was in our favor and we had no chaos! It was pure joy … and at times almost overwhelming. I had to fight back the tears a few times. It was incredible to see how the Lord provided for this day, but also how much have changed since the first party we were part of in 2006.
We celebrated with Thulwane, Timbutini and Ntabamhloshana at the Timbutini carepoint. The kids arrived, we gave them a snack, they heard the Christmas story and made Christmas cards. We watched each care point’s presentation (cultural dance or song) and then we had lunch. After lunch we gave out the gifts. The older children loved their backpacks. The younger children got toys and the little boys were really proud of their toy cars and trucks.
Thank you to all of you who contributed to this day! We want to especially thank Matthew25 and Westwood Baptist in Alabaster AL, Jumbo’s brother and Cumming New Life Church (in Georgia) for helping to make this happen.
What great progress you have made for the Kingdom since 06.
Praise the Lord.
Keep up the awesome work.
yeah! so glad that it went well! may the rest of them be just as much fun and run even smoother 😉
