Dear Friends,
On the the approach to Christmas a couple of years ago our family of friends decided to take a different path. I called a family meeting after church one Sunday; we gathered around a table in a very cold room and I brought out the World Vision Gift Catalog. It took a minute and half for everyone to wholeheartedly agree to pool our resources to bless people around the world instead of drawing names for presents we didn't need. That room warmed up instantly! It has given our friendship a deeper dynamic as we've considered our gifts and the impact they will have on people in desperate need. Goats, chickens, mosquito nets, seeds and tools...would you be willing to try something new?
All my best,
Kate
