Friends, I wouldn’t ask you to do something that I could do and haven’t done myself:
Christmas in Ubaúna
Imagine a life that is lived out in a desolate region where the heat makes people old before their time, where food is a precious commodity that is typically consumed just once daily and clean water is rare. Imagine the life of a child growing up in such an environment.
Imagine.
Now imagine the face of a child in that environment receiving a box full of “goodies” that he could not possibly afford to purchase. Pencils, hair ribbons, a toy car, soap, a toothbrush and toothpaste, candy. Imagine that taking place on Christmas day. Imagine never having celebrated Christmas before. Imagine discovering that someone, somewhere, loves you so much that they’d make such a day possible for you.
This is Christmas in Ubaúna 2009.
Two hundred children are going to experience Christmas for the first time ever in their lives on December 25, 2009. Two hundred special boxes are ready to make their journey to the interior of northeastern Brazil. Two hundred children are going to be surprised on Christmas. An entire village is going to be awed by the love of Jesus being shown to them in a special way.
If you would like to be a part of this special surprise Christmas party, a simple gift of $10-20 will help make the party happen. Contributions are being accepted up to December 13.
A financial donation of $10-20 on your part not only will bring a smile to an impoverished child’s face, it will open the doors to bring Jesus into their homes.
