This past Saturday a large group of us went along to spend some time at a settlement in Boksburg.
We made boerewors rolls and hotdogs. We also took along apples and juices, as well as home made biscuits and sweets.
Clothing and household items were delivered prior to our visit to be distributed to the residents.
Everyone got stuck in and prepared the food for lunch. There were no idle hands.Everything was donated by people who wanted to help make a difference in the lives of the less fortunate.
The children were entertained....
The children heard about the birth of Jesus and did related activities, making angels and Christmas cards. |
Let us all pray together.
Father Christmas arrived, and to everyone's delight he called out their names and gave them their presents.
This little one was so excited and delighted with her new clothes.
Lunch was enjoyed by all ... there were even seconds, and some food could be taken home too!
Singing along was a load of fun.
Biscuits were handed out and enjoyed by residents as well as the team.
The children loved having their faces painted.
It was soon time to bid our new found friends farewell.
We will be back just before Christmas to bless everyone with treats for Christmas day.
It is more blessed to give than receive.
