Christmas and Salvation

Our children’s programs had wonderful Christmas programs full of food, music, celebration, and the true meaning of Christmas – in fact at least 13 people were saved through these programs!

  • In Oaxaca, families were invited for a delicious meal and beautiful pageant. Each of the grades performed a dance or depiction of a Biblical story or truth. Pastor Victor shared the story of God’s love at Christmas. 

  • In Haiti, the children gathered to celebrate the birth of Jesus with prayer, reciting scripture, a wonderful meal, and gifts. Pastor Chavanne led the children in thanking God for the Forward Edge Family and asked them to continue to prayer for the mission to expand.  

  • In Kenya, the sponsored children and their families enjoyed a Christmas party with scrumptious meal, Christmas carols, multiple cakes, and the Gospel. Each family received a Christmas gift hamper with food for the families. 

  • In Uganda, the staff organized a Christmas party for the children of Katanga slum – a place that would use the joy and peace of Jesus. Due to the large number of children, the community leaders assisted the Forward Edge team with the children. Everyone enjoyed a wonderful meal and a beautiful “Merry Christmas” cake. 

  • In Ghana, needed food packages were distributed to families so they would have food for Christmas together. 

  • In Cuba, the program had their annual Christmas dinner with 345 people attending! The team provided a terrific Cuban meal, and the Gospel was presented to all. That day, 13 people from the community accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior! 

Each celebration was unique and reflected the wonderful work of the program. The hope, love, joy and peace of Christmas were shared with many because of you!

Transform a Child's Life Through Sponsorship

Habari (hello), my name is Ramsey

  • location

    Kenya

  • 6 yrs. old

    10-17-2019

Entered the Program: August 2024

Ramsey lives with his grandmother, mother, 3 cousins, aunt and uncle in a three-room wood house with a dirt floor. The house has solar lighting and the family gets water from a neighbor’s well. They have an outside kitchen and use firewood for cooking; they have no bathing facility but use a pit latrine.

Ramsey and his older brother were initally raised by both of their parents, but their father became an alcoholic and abusive so their mother left with the children and went back home to her mother’s house. She is now a single parent and is often unemployed but tries to find casual labor jobs. Her meager income is hardly enough to provide for her sons and care for her elderly mother.

Sponsorship Level What's this?

Three $38 sponsorships are needed to cover the complete holistic care of one child. Cover one, two, or three sponsorships.
