Christmas Gifts….{water}

Lesley - Sweet video. Did someone at TCABC do this!? Great message Ash, thanks for posting the link to the catalog. I have to say Hudson’s face cracks me up!

Sara H. - That is the best video I have seen! Thanks for posting it! Hope you don’t mind if I share it!

Shanalea - This is what we do with our kids. Instead of giving gifts to our families who have too much already we give gifts in honor of them. My dad works alot with Habitat for Humanity so we give there in honor of him. My sister-in-law does a lot with Uganda so we give to Invisible Children for her. Then we mostly choose things from World Vision Christmas Catalog. It is a way to show the love of God and teach the lesson that others are important to God. AND our families appreciate too because they see the value of it.

Mandy - So I was wondering…the glass in front of Hudson that is empty….dirty or clean water?? =)

melanie - Samaritan’s purse does a great job. I love how you involve your boys in giving! You guys are great!

sheridan - I saw this video a while back…so powerful!!! Our family loves Heifer International. This is where our gifts are going this year. Thank you for sharing all these wonderful ideas with us!
