With a party and moments of fellowship, we touched the hearts of hundreds of children and their families, sharing a transformative message about the birth of Christ and the faith that unites us.
We want to share with you moments that filled our hearts with joy and hope. Thanks to God and the support of many generous people, the 2024 Christmas Sponsorship was a success!
🌟 Two Parties, One Message of Love
This past year, we organized two unforgettable Christmas parties for the children in the communities we serve:
- December 14th (Saturday): Iguatemi and Vila Rosa
- December 17th (Tuesday): Promorar, Sapopemba, and Vila Tolstoi
Each event was filled with special moments that reminded us of the true meaning of Christmas.
🎶 We started with Music and Joy
The parties started with an exciting moment of music and games. The smiles on the children’s faces were contagious! 🥳 It was beautiful to see how small actions can bring so much happiness and unite people in a spirit of fellowship.
🎭 Telling the True Story of Christmas
Next, we presented an emotional play, prepared by our brothers and sisters from Oregon (USA), which offered a reflection on the true meaning of Christmas. 🌠 The children learned that Christmas is not about presents or consumption, but about the greatest gift we’ve ever received: Jesus, the one who gives us hope and salvation.
It was a unique opportunity to emphasize the importance of not being swayed by the values of today’s culture, but of remaining steadfast in biblical truth.
🍴 A Feast to Celebrate
After the play, we served a special meal for the children. 🍗✨ Gratitude was visible in every glance, and moments like these remind us that fellowship around a table is a powerful way to build bonds and share love.
🎁 Gifts that Touched Hearts
Finally, the most awaited moment arrived: the distribution of the gifts collected during the 2024 Christmas Sponsorship campaign. 🎁 Each child received their gift with great joy, knowing it had been prepared with love.
In total, 310 children were reached through the parties. Seeing each one holding their gift and smiling is a reminder that God is faithful and continues to use people to bring hope where it’s needed most.
🤝 A Collective Effort
None of this would have been possible without the help of so many generous hearts! We had the privilege of working with people from both Brazil and abroad 🌍, including those from the United States and Europe, who joined us to bless these children.
These events showed how much we can accomplish when we work together as one true family in Christ. 💕
✨ The True Meaning of Christmas
This past Christmas, we celebrated not only the birth of Jesus but the impact of His love in our lives. Seeing the joy of the children and feeling the unity in every detail of the celebrations reminds us that, in Christ, we are called to be the light of the world.
