Gift Giving

















This week leading up to Navidad has been a super fun one! Some of you donated extra money to us to buy gifts for the kids at the soup kitchen. We were able to give 30 presents to the kids we know best, which we delivered to their houses this week. In addition, some of the children's sponsors gave extra money for Christmas gifts such as bikes and dolls which we delivered the 24th, which is when most Ecuadorians celebrate Christmas.

Looks like somebody will be playing Monopoly (in english). Did some of the children get new bikes? How wonderful for all of you. What a great time of giving and feeling the Love of Christ spread throughout where you are. It will be such a joyous time for all of you. God Bless. Love, Mom and Dad B.

Wow! Amy and Greg! I just read through your entire blog, and I am bit speechless. I can only think of words like "incredible," "amazing," and "awesome" but they sound so silly strung together like that... Truly, it looks like an adventure. I know you aren't THAT far from where I am in Florida but I gather from what you have written that it is a totally different world. I am so excited for you future time there and your ministry with the people...I can't wait to read your future posts! Happy New Year! Love, Sara
