Last year we started a tradition of spending our Christmas Eve working in needy communities here in San Jose. The children love receiving some special attention, a little food and a small gift.
This year was extra special since Shelley's brother Stacey and his family (Kristy, Karly and Brandon) were visiting as well. We had a great time (one long day!) visiting two communities. Here are some photos from Christmas Eve Day.
This first photo was taken at Pastor Leyla's home just before leaving for the day. From left...Maria (Leyla's daughter), Kayley, Karly and Brandon.
The first event was held in a community called El Nazareno. Even Stacey and Kristy got into the act!
We had a great time doing the Bible School program with the kids and clowning around.
The second community was Eulalia (located about 25 minutes from the Seminary). The lady in front with the white, light blue and pink top is the cell leader for this community and she opened her home for us to work on Christmas Eve. Her name is Sarah.
Some of the beautiful children of Eulalia.
It was a long day of ministry, but all worth it in the end to see the children enjoying the day. For many of these children, the gift they received will be the only one for Christmas. Thanks to everyone who participated and made it a special day.
Next time we will share more about our vacation time with Shelley's brother and family. We enjoyed the butterfly farm, ziplining, the beach, the volcano, and La Paz Waterfall Gardens.
Have a wonderful New Years celebration. God bless you!
David, Shelley, Joshua and Kayley Webb
