Wrapping Gifts

Tommorow is the staff Christmas party so we have been wrapping gifts for the kids of the mission staff. The staff members would not be able to provide any gifts for their children without some help so at the party we give a little bonus to the parents and a gift for each child. I also tried to pull off stockings this year so the kids could have some little necessary things like pencils and stuff.... I had to sew the stockings and could not get them all done so we just put the little things in there packages. I am so happy about this. It makes it a lot of fun to be able to give gifts to these kids who have so little. The circumstances of the staff are improving little by little and I have hope that eventually the families will be more secure and healthy. I also wrapped a sari to give away as a prize to a Bible Quiz. That will be fun.
The last couple of days have been pretty quiet because of the rains. Everything kind of stops when it rains here because the road are pretty much just mud and the rain is horrendous.
