I hope and pray everybody had a great, safe Christmas!!!!!
Resting a little bit today, we counted up 101 small gifts that our little anti-trafficking organization gave away to the adults in our village, and 77 of the Samaritan's Purse shoe box gifts (do you know these, people all over the world give this for children in poor countries, our village got them due to the hard work my wife put in on this), there were 8 of us on staff there, so we figured it came to around 186 people in our little villages' first ever Christmas caroling and party.
No body went away empty handed, but none with a LOT either, we had 2 grand prizes of large elect. fans, but all the other prizes were a bottle of oil or soy sauce, packet of noodles, box of cookies, etc. We got to the end (we had no idea, only guessed how many presents we would need) we had one bottle of cooking oil left, the village cripple came up to my wife and said, my number never got called. So she gave him the oil, the presents came out 101, EXACTLY!!!!!
We had the privilege of sharing with these great people our joy at the birth of Jesus being celebrated yesterday.
Thanks for putting up with me, I hope it does not sound like I am bragging, it was not me that did it. I was just thrilled to be a part.
God Bless,
Wayne
God bless the child that's got his own.
