The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. Psalm 28:7

Much Effort

Do you ever think something is a good idea then after getting into it realize that maybe it wasn't that great??

I really thought trying to organize a Christmas program at the church would be a great outreach tool as well as bring folks at the church closer together and out of their shells. Well, it still will be those things.

However, the work that I've put into it is- well, too much! I'm praying that God will help me do it because there is so much to do. My good friend Addy has been my biggest and only helper. The other day she and I worked on sewing angel costumes for the program!


We had no pattern and neither one of us can sew that well. I'm sure we would absolutely appall any seamstress out there. But we are trying our best.
We just guess at cutting out the pattern and then sew them together. I will post some finished pictures later on. We also need to make something for the wisemen & king Herod, probably something for the shepherds too.

This will definitely be a Belizean Christmas program and I pray that it will all be done and ready so that it can be a blessing to others.

Now the other side of the program which is organizing the program, practices, music, & the like. We did have one practice so far and everyone is promising me that they will be there and not let me down. Thats one problem here with people they will tell you yes but not show up. We will practice again this Sabbath evening and I hope it will be better than last week.

Another thought on this- a gentleman came by the radio yesterday and asked Addy if we would take our program to Belmopan......so I need to check into that and find out what he means.  Please pray for this program because this church has never done anything like it before and I've never organized one either.
Onward and upward as they say.
Stay tuned for more updates!
