Christmas Project 2016: We are going to celebrate Christmas Joy with the Children in Uvira
Category : Uncategorized
This year as we observe our season of Christmas, let us be grateful not only in word but also in deed. Let our gratitude find expression as we resolve to live a life more as Jesus taught us.
When we sit around our tables laden with sumptuous delicacies, let us not forget that nearly a billion people around the world will go to bed hungry. As we enjoy the comforts of our cozy homes, let us not forget that great numbers have no homes to go to. When we step into our modern cars, let us not forget that many people in the world cannot afford even a bicycle.
The Children’s Christmas Project is a special and unique opportunity to bring some joy to children whose parents are not in a financial position to give them something special during this festive time of year. This project reaches beyond the ministry of the children in the education program. Through this event, the children are invited to gather, rejoice and have fun, enjoying the holiday together.
Christmas is a time for celebration and giving and sharing with one another, so it is at this time when we do our best to bring joy to others by hosting a party such as this.
For the past 3 years, we have been celebrating Christmas as part of our Flamme d’Avenir Education program, gathering 300+ community members, including our 50+ children enrolled in the educational sponsorship program.
How you can help:
- You can start a ‘’Christmas Circle’’: in this case, you will share with at least one or more closer friends or family members about this Christmas Project and each will contribute according to his/her means. This money will help us to serve and feed many children during this Christmas Event.
- Make a donation to support women’s activities: Your contribution will help our sponsored children’s mothers to start small business activities which will help them provide for their families and create a better future.
- Sponsor a child: Would you be willing to sponsor a child’s education? Maybe you are already sponsor and are able to sponsor another? Perhaps you would like to sponsor on behalf of someone else or give sponsorship to someone as an extra special birthday or Christmas gift? Do you know of a friend or relative that would consider sponsoring?
Each life sponsored is a story changed!
