Merry Christmas!







Hello dear friends and family!

We have been busy with Christmas dinners and alike and we are sure you have been busy too. Before Christmas comes we wanted to take a moment and share some pictures with you from our time yesterday at an orphanage that we go to every week. We held a Christmas party for the 34 children that live at the orphanage called Alfan. We took them tamales, cookies, and punch as well as Christmas gifts and a piñata. It was a delight to see their faces when they got their small Christmas gifts and candy. These children have very little and may not get any other gifts for Christmas. You may expect the children of an orphanage to no be well behaved but these children are wonderful and have very good house parents. They are grateful for what they have and are kind and loving. Would you please pray for these sweet kids? Pray that they will come to know Christ and his deep love for them.

This Christmas will be spent here in Mexico with our friends, but on the 27th we will head to Michigan and then Kentucky to spend several weeks with family and friends in the States. If you are in the Kentucky area and would like to get together with us please let us know. If you don't hear from us for a few weeks it is because we are in the States.

Remember that you can send your end of the year gift to:
GO InterNational
PO Box 123
Wilmore, KY 40390
With our names on the memo line

The orphanage is also in need of funds as it runs off of donations. If you are interested in giving a gift to help the orphanage please e-mail us at: jandjmexico@gmail.com

We hope you all have a very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Love,
Josh and Jennifer
