Hi Everyone,

First of all thanks to all who ventured out on Friday night. It was a cold one! We actually arrived downtown early ya ya ya!! East Cleveland, we gave 11 blankets to numerous children who had no heat or lack of it. Children just kept coming up to us when we were leaving asking if we had any blankets. These children had possibily no heat at home or lack of it. To see the humility in their hearts was inspiring to me. God loves these children so much. You see God had a plan, we received a donation that day of 10 blankets, yes it is a fact...God does provide to all.....

Dorie put together 20 Christmas bags for the children and they scooped them up quick. We gave out socks, jackets, clothes and tons of snacks. We met our new driver Reggie great guy. Albert joined us along with Emmanual. At one point Reggie, Albert and Amanda were singing Christmas carols it was so neat I wish I recorded it to post here. Albert also sang one of his new songs he just wrote.. Tom and Amanda joined us for the first time tonight they did a fantastic job we were so blessed to have them with us. 2100 Lakeside, as before we gave out 200 Chick fli a sandwiches, approx 100 ham sandwiches (thanks to Sarah & Linda) tons of snacks, socks, gloves and hats. We had hot choc. and left over hot stew from East Cleveland. All most forgot, we gave out 25 bibles (thanks Pastor). Mike of course prayed with numerous people.

Friday was our 12 time out this year, thank you to all who have helped & donated items and their time. We all know that the main provider is God, without Him nothing is possibly.

MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!!

IN HIS LOVE,

JOHN
