Christmas For 600 Refugees!

We were just informed that we will be helping with Christmas for 600 refugees!  I have reposted the info that we recieved from the wonderful team in Athens.

This Christmas we will be giving 5 Christmas parties for 120 refugees each time.  That's 600 refugees who will get a special meal, see a puppet show and hear a message about Christmas.  That's 600 refugees that will receive as a gift practical items as well as some small toys for the kids.  That's 600 refugees who will take the book of John printed in their language home with them that night.  That's 600 refugees who will know that someone cares and that they are not forgotten.  Would you be willing to help us give these things to our refugee friends?  Our parties will be happening the first week of December so although Christmas seems far away we need your donations as soon as possible.  Gifts should be designated HELPING HANDS -CHRISTMAS IN ATHENS and sent to: International Teams 411 W. River Rd.  Elgin, IL 60123 or give online at https://wwws.iteams.org/us/give be sure and designate this for Helping Hands - Christmas in Athens.
