light and life to all He brings

Recently, Caraballo hosted a few members of the Kids Alive International leadership team. It was a joy to have them at our site and encouraging to have their presence and support. When asked, “What can the home office be praying for?” Here was my response.

{As I think about Christmas celebrations just around the corner, I reflect on what Christmas means…”God with us”. Jesus our Savior born into our world to save us from our sins. I am praying all year round, but especially during this season, that the Gospel will be made clear to these children and that many will trust in Jesus as their Savior}

I recently found out about two more third grade boys who decided to follow Christ! Hallelujah, how beautiful! Rejoice with me and pray with me that the Care Center can come alongside them as they grow in their new faith.

As I anticipate celebrating Christmas this year, the familiar lyrics to this Christmas carol come to mind when I think about what God is doing in Caraballo.

Hark the herald angels sing


"Glory to the newborn King!


Peace on earth and mercy mild


God and sinners reconciled

Joyful, all ye nations rise


Join the triumph of the skies


With the angelic host proclaim:


"Christ is born in Bethlehem"


Hark! The herald angels sing
 "Glory to the newborn King!"

Christ by highest heav'n adored


Christ the everlasting Lord!


Late in time behold Him come

Offspring of a Virgin's womb


Veiled in flesh the Godhead see


Hail the incarnate Deity


Pleased as man with man to dwell


Jesus, our Emmanuel


Hark! The herald angels sing 
"Glory to the newborn King!"

Hail the heav'n-born Prince of Peace!


Hail the Son of Righteousness!


Light and life to all He brings


Ris'n with healing in His wings


Mild He lays His glory by


Born that man no more may die


Born to raise the sons of earth


Born to give them second birth


Hark! The herald angels sing 
"Glory to the newborn King!"
