Generous

Last night and tonight we hosted Photos with Santa to benefit the Orange Santa program for kids in need in Hutto.  Santa was awesome (as usual).  We had a lot of help from other groups in the community, which really made it a great event.

With the economy tanking, we fully expected to run low this year.  But last night and today, some people came through in BIG ways.  It's encouraging to know that, even in hard times, people can show generousity.  It's a blessing for both parties.

On a different note, as I was heading out the door for our event, I got a call from a man in Ontario who is excited about our Sister City relationship.  He grew up in Chililabombwe, is a Canadian citizen, and is of Indian descent.  I love the global village!  His passion was contagious!

What joy we have when we give ourselves away.
