Jason installs the new TV and DVD

Tonight we spent the evening with the folks at the Community Residential Home. We had a grand time indeed!! We sang Christmas songs and Hymns and everyone got a large gift bag full of good stuff, The folks ate 12 dozen cookies, and drinks ....They even got a new flat screen TV and DVD player and a stack of new movies for movie night. Jason thanked everyone for letting us share this night with them, Susan read the Christmas story from the Bible, and I said a prayer over the food and the evening. The employees even received a Gift card from Walmart.

The party !!!





 










God truly blessed tonight !!  We just joined them and had a very nice Christmas party. We made many new friends tonight. I am sure that we will be in their lives for a long time. One of the older ladies took my wife aside and told her that this was the best Christmas she had in her whole life.

The Head nurse here said that she had prayed that God would bless these folks this Christmas because some of these folks never have any visitors at all..ever! She said that she asked  God to let them have a good Christmas this year...and He delivered!! We were the third group this month to visit them... God is kind and just to answer our prayers...He does hear us. and He will answer!!!

This night was not about the gifts, but rather the time we were able to spend with our new friends, and the blessings that God has given us to pass on to others.So, as we sang "Happy Birthday to Jesus" with them, we looked around the room, and thanked God for allowing us to share His love .Christmas time, as many other times of the year, is a lonely time for so many. And all they really want is a smile, or a hug, or a few minutes of your time. Let us try to be aware of our surroundings this Christmas season, and share the love of Jesus as much as we can..........

This Christmas we have been blessed to touch 31 famlies in two states.
 John 1:14

14And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

Merry Christmas !!!!
