This group is amazing! We set out to do 10 boxes but exceeded our goal. Thank you to the parents that helped take the kids shopping--we ended up doing 15 boxes.
We talked about the kids who will receive the boxes, the joy that will shine on their faces in knowing strangers (us) on another continent packed them in love. The boxes also get sent with the Story of Jesus, and the message of Jesus' love for everyone- our prayer is that this children will end up knowing Christ as their Savior. We also made sure to included a card, signed by every student to include in each box, then prayed for the boxes and the child that would receive the box.
It's awesome to teach this kids about serving. My hope is that during the Christmas season we can continue to show acts of kindness to our brothers and sister right here where we live and go to school. I challenge you, as parents, to show and do these with your kids.
