A Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to All!
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas day celebrating the birth of out Saviour Jesus Christ. Here is a picture of the Ciumeghiu Children's Christmas Program, that took place on Sunday, December 23rd. All went very well and the church was packed full of children and mothers. Over 130 Christmas packets were given out and one drunk man wandering by prayed to received the Lord as His Saviour. He was a Hungarian visiting the area and refused to leave until he received "something for his soul," as he put it. We pray that the Lord will work in this man's life as he returns home. Thank you again for all your donations of money, toys and school supplies. Your donations made over 400 Christmas children's packets!! It truly was a blessed Christmas for many Rom children this year. Thank you! I pray you all have a wonderful Holiday Season with family and friends. Love, Kim

Christmas is coming!

Merry Christmas! We like you are running around buying gifts, baking supplies and decor for our homes. Pigs are being butchered and I am packing gift bags for Christmas children's packets. Praise the Lord my shipment arrived Monday! God sent it just in time for Christmas to give out all the crayons and toys you sent. Thank you all! It also arrived on the one day that I had people over to decorate for Christmas so there were lots of hands to help with lifting and sorting.
Wednesday, December 19 was the Ladies Class Christmas celebration. We made the ornaments (shown in picture) that a friend sent from the States. Thanks Suzy! We had fun making them and eating Christmas cookies as well as reflecting on the two amazing women, Elizabeth and Mary, God used to bring us salvation through Jesus Christ. Please pray for all our Holiday events as you pray for yours. Sunday December 23 will be the Ciumeghiu Kids Christmas program. We are expecting many visitors as well talk about the children's class, classroom construction and explain our goal: to introduce Jesus to ALL! I also am having great opportunities to share Christ with my neighbors and others. Please pray for my continued witness to ALL people here in Romania. I hope you all have a wonderful Holiday season. May His name be praised! Kim
