Dear Frens,
There is undoubtedly no Christmas if we do not bring the joy of Christ to at least one person we know during the season where we celebrate his coming.
Thank you so much for all who responded so generously to the call for a scrumptious Christmas dinner and food rations for the poor family.
Thank you also to all who have been taking loads of effort these past months to donate, deliver or find friends who have furniture, TVs, microwaves and washing machines to fill 3 homes of our less fortunate brothers and sisters and also a centre for kids with special needs and disabilities.

Thank you too for all who also responded so quickly yesterday to the call to provide a Wonderful Christmas Eve and Christmas day lunch for the girls at the Tent. Instead of self-cooked meals by 12 to 18yr olds, they now have turkey, honey baked ham, ice cream, fruits and a huge cake! Plus KFC! :)
I thank you all on their behalf.. I am humbled at everyone's generosity.

My deep gratitude and thanks also goes to all who offered their furniture, their food, their time and their money but I was not able to take up on their generosity when homes were filled and tables full.
I am sure Jesus would be at their tables tonight, as he would be at yours, smiling at our solidarity and love for the poor.
May our Father be well pleased at our small efforts to continually make a small difference in lives of others.
All efforts we make are only for His Glory \o/\o/\o/
