If you haven't heard by now we are partnering with Hattieville Baptist Church in Belize to help them with their annual Christmas party. Our youth group visited their church on a mission trip last year. They are a small church (100 people or so) in a small town (1300 people or so). Yet every year they have a Christmas party for the local children and usually attract 300 kids. So pretty much every child in town and around the area knows about it and comes.For this event the church provides a meal, has games, music, activities, presents the gospel, gives every child a Christmas gift, and gives every child an additional gift to give away to someone else. This is an amazing ministry that their small church cannot do alone. That is where we come in.
Our goal is to raise $200 by November 10. $200 in the United States is actually double that amount in Belize, so really they will have $400 to spend on gifts for these children and other expenses for this great event. We have 4 weeks to raise the money. My challenge to you is to collect spare change and make donations. Every Wednesday and Sunday for the next 4 weeks we will be collecting with our goal of $200. We already have $11.11! So we just need $188.89 to make our goal. Can you be a part of this awesome opportunity?
