December 9th was Cajueiro Claro's Christmas party, celebrating an amazing first year of the Living Stones program and of the church plant there. It was a full house, with people standing outside, peeking in the windows.
The children sang "Silent Night" (in English), and ended with a special presentation for Pastor Flavio.
The children then did a mime presentation
There were almost 40 children in our Sunday school class, and we ran out of chairs so had kids sitting in the window frame and leaning in from the outside.
Rachel shared about what God wants for Christmas.
Their favorite part about the Christmas story was when Mary and Joseph had to travel to Bethlehem on the donkey--because one of the kids has a donkey, and they all take turns riding it.(They also liked when I did the voices for all of the characters.)
We had a presentation for the mothers--the kids had writen special Christmas letters and made presents to give them.
Some of the people from the community, and all of the donations from the International school provided for 10 bags of food to give to the families.
And of course, presents for all of the children. And there was great rejoicing and the eating of cake:).
