We praise the Lord for our gracious donors, providing clothes and other gifts for our children, youth and elderly during this Christmas season. All of the 80 or more children that we are involved with, their family members, and all the elderly know (or should know) that Christmas is not about giving or receiving gifts among human beings. The real meaning is about the greatest gift, the Gift from our heavenly Father, giving His own Son to live a sinless life, die on a Cross for our sins, and then to be raised again and ascend back to the Father. That one Gift made a way for us to be forgiven, break the bonds of Satan over our lives, receive the Holy Spirit, become part of the family of GOD, and to spend eternity with Him. Can anyone match that??? But in the same spirit of giving, along with the Word being preached about His coming, we like to express His love with small gifts to show every child and adult how precious they are to us, and to Him.
In the 1st photo is Sister Salome, one of our widows, and her granddaughter Blessy, now a college student. They had just received some clothes. The 2nd photo is our 5 girls home children, Soniya, Bindu, Venkata Lakshmi, Yasaswi and Divya, also receiving new clothes. Continue to pray about our year-end giving. Thus far, we have received very little extra giving, but we're trusting and crying to our faithful Lord!
