"JOY" - JESUS, ORPHANS, AND YOU

You can be a triple blessing by sending "Joy" boxes and "Joy" bags to Ukraine, Guatemala and Sierra Madres, Mexico.

Dear Friends,

We are excited about doing "Joy" boxes and "Joy" bags again this year.  We hope that we can count on everyone to participate in this activity so that we can provide many children with a gift.  I am providing you with the information that you need to complete a "Joy" box below:

Fill up a shoe box with the items below.  Enclose $7.00 in each box to cover the shipping cost and to provide a "Joy"  bag for an additional child.  For a donation of an additional $2.00 another "Joy" bag can be purchased.  You can be a blessing to children in all three countries.  If you do not want to shop for the items to put in the "Joy" boxes, you can make a donation and we will do the shopping for you.  You can donate now.

We can not get authorization to transport gifts through Mexico in route to Guatemala, so we take the money donated to Guatemala and purchase the items for the bags there.  The people that attend the local church fill the bags and have them ready for our volunteers to give out to the children in December.  This sounds to simple to be true but the smile on the children's faces says it all.

For the Children, 
Darrell Rooks, President
