Always a beautiful time to do an outreach at the Children's Center where Elli regularly teaches Bible and helps the children with their homework. This center is close to our home and most of the children are close by neighbors. Their families are living below poverty level and many have serious problems within their homes. For several, the hot lunch here is their only meal for the day.
Elli loves the children so much and especially enjoys planning special events like this one for them to enjoy. The ministry here provides lunch that day for the children, and Elli had a Christmas lesson ready to share and then the kids enjoyed the games, prizes and of course Christmas cookie decorating she had planned for them.
Our hearts rejoice over what good foundations are being built in their hearts by teaching them the truth of God's Word and loving on them. Praise God for the open door here, and please keep the salvation of these children and their families in your prayers.
