Kid’s Club Christmas
If success at a children’s Christmas party is measured by the number of laughs, the amount of joy and if all are honoring Jesus as the reason for the season – then our club meeting was a success. It was a fun night at the Marcos 10:14 kid’s club in Galeana on Wednesday, December 21. About 80 kids showed up for a night of game playing, song singing, prayers delivered, pinata breaking and Pizza eating. It all ended with each child getting a bag of candy and a generous gift.
There were twice as many kids at the party than we had expected. But the joy of the season was demonstrated as the children laughed and cheered for each other. Yessi, Pastor Jose and family, Martin, Ana, Stephen and Tonyia all helped the kids remember Christ’s birth is what we are celebrating. The gift given to each child at the end of the night included a couple of toys, practical items such as soap and a tract explaining the gospel. They were all very grateful and for some this will be the only Christmas gift they will get.
Thank you LORD for this opportunity to show your love celebrating Jesus’ birth. Also, thank you to the churches and individuals who gave gift items, money and prayers to make this happen. This was our first gift giving event as True Path Ministry has many more places yet to go this season. Next we will move into the mountain villages.
Please continue to keep us in your prayers this season and if the Lord is leading you to donate financially visit our support page.
