May God bless each one who provided Christmas and Birthday gifts for the children at Faith Children's Village this past year.  On Christmas day each child received a package containing new clothes.  The smiles on faces were priceless. (Click here to see photos of the children receiving gifts)  The children as a group also received soccer balls, a new soccer net, pads and cleats and new volleyballs.  We were even able to provide a gift to each of the staff members.  Thank you so much for helping make this possible.
