"For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being ROOTED and grounded in LOVE, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the LOVE of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen."

~Ephesians 3:14-21

Our First Christmas In Peru: Part 2

CHRISTMAS IN PERU~ FELIZ NAVIDAD
Christmas Party At Belen All Girls Children's Home...
We are so thankful for our friends who helped with this special party! The girls were full of joy as we celebrated with lots of food, music, and shared the AMAZING story of the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. We wanted to thank so many churches and individuals in the States who helped make this evening possible. Thank you for all the donations and gifts that you helped send for the girls (all the socks, scarves, books, toothbrushes, clothes, bracelets, toys, etc.) and for helping to provide so many with Bibles. The girls enjoyed having a Peruvian Chocolatada (Hot Chocolate & Sweet Bread) and getting their tummies full with delicious chicken & fries. Thank you Anita for the amazing food, Don & Carla for the Christmas music, and to Emily and Cucho for helping to share the miracle and birth of Baby Jesus! We love you all and wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas...thank you again for all the LOVE you that you have shown to these precious girls! They gave us LOTS and LOTS of hugs and kisses last night ~ thanking everyone for sharing Christmas with them! 
May God Bless You All!



































And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying,

“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!”

~Luke 2: 8-14
