Other C-mas stuff...

Christmas humanitarian aid mid caroling... At a nearby "community" (it's not polite to say "slum" or "favela" anymore) delivering donated gifts and toys and basic food baskets to the 30 sum families who live there... (We will also start a sewing project there this year. Pls pray for that. we still need a room and a couple more sewing machines, ..and anointing for the teachers. *gulp! )

Yay!!!

Kid, what ARE you doing? hehe!

...Our very own Brazilian Santa!
From Rio to be exact ;)

Merry Christmas!

Christmas season...

It's Christmastime again...
And with it comes the activities we usually engage this season. Some of them are...

1-Christmas caroling/busking. And for that we need costumes. so since this one seamstress did an unacceptable job on our dresses, we had to redo it all ourselves (made from last years skirts! Shh!*).

Here's my sewing table (making new hats) looking rather neat compared to what it looked like most of the time. :P

2- Christmas cookies! :D

3- Christmas Cards

(Pardon the sick look, I seem to have come down with a flu just at the wrong time. :(

Christmas Singing...
Another disclaimer: We don't have ANY good pics of our singing team :(
..yet, hopefully. So these will have to do for now.

And in this picture we had forgotten 1 of out hats.
oh well, and so we improvise; make that 2. :)

Have a great C-mas season!

Art for Africa...

This project kept me busy and and turned me into a "computer potato" for quite some time...

An expansion of a program we started in Sierra Leone (by Activated Mission.) It's still a local small scale project but hopefully it will take off and be a blessing to many in all of Africa.

I basically just modified some "Start Early" posters to relate more to the African kids.
Sadly I wasn't able to finish ALL of them due to the upcoming C-mas season.

Here are a few samples:

I do hope it will make a difference in the lives of the little African children.

Cheers! ;-)
