The Joy of Christmas



Every YEAR 2,102,400 more children become orphans in Africa alone

Every DAY 38,493 children AGE OUT of the orphanage...they will be turned out into the streets...with NOTHING

Staggering statistics, seems hopeless, yet we can all make a difference.

I love this time of year. The lights & decorations, Christmas music blaring through our home, all the extra cookies & goodies....lots of excitement each day as we approach Christmas day. Such a joyous time for us yet a lonely time for so many.

I pray this season we will remember the true reason for the season and share the joy and hope of our Savior's birth by helping or loving someone in need.
