MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL

THIS IS THE DAY OF OUR DEAR SAVIORS BIRTH, FALL ON YOUR KNEES OH HEAR THE ANGELS SINGING OH NIGHT DIVINE! We sang that song at church last night and it echoed thru the sanctuary. The church was packed of worshipers and we sat way up in the farthest corner of the balcony, you can't be late to a Christmas service and expect front row seats. We wish everyone a Merry Christmas. It's always hardest to be away from family on Holidays and next year we plan to be with family in Chicago for Christmas, Lord willing! Paula has a turkey in the oven and we will take it to Mexico this afternoon along with 100 sleeping bags that were donated to us from a family at Calvary Baptist Church where we attend. What a huge gift to the children there. The temperature is going to be near freezing for the next couple of nights, so the sleeping bags are a well thought Divine gift to the children. The van is full from front to back, top to bottom and we pray for Gods Favor at the border this afternoon. I think we'll give out the sleeping bags as we drive through the colonia today before we have Christmas dinner with Carmelo, Ruth, Ruths' family, Beto and his family, and several other people from the colonia. Turkey, tamales,barbocoa and tres leches cake. We just spoke to our oldest daughter Kristin and she has to work today, so a co worker can be with his family on Christmas, so God Bless you for your kind heart Kris. The group from Chicago starts arriving tomorrow for a fun filled week of building a house and giving out gifts to the children and women in the colonia. We can't wait to see everyone.
