Last night I watched the movie "White Christmas" one of my all-time favorite Christmas movies! Here in Plzen we have had either rainy days, or just plain cold days but not much snow. I was thinking last night, while watching the movie, that it would be nice to have a white Christmas this year... well today my dream came true! I know Christmas is still a week away, but today we were able to take Christmas to the refugee camp! And because the camp is out in the middle of nowhere- north of Plzen, we had a white Christmas today- they had snow on the ground and all the trees were blanketed! It was beautiful driving into the camp! And what was even more beautiful was that we were able to go and take so many gifts to the children of the camp! The joy on their faces was amazing! They were so excited! And the parents were genuinly grateful! We threw a party- coffee, tea, a band had a concert, and we passed out gifts to all of the kids there! What a blessing- and what a more true picture of Christmas... sharing Christ's love with those that feel forgotten and misplaced! Hope Christ's love is also at the very core of your Christmas season!

isn't God good to allow you to experience such a time.
Seems like you had a great time at the refugee camp, Becky! Julia showed me a few more pictures from the project yesterday. They were great.
Merry Christmas!
