Bringing the Story of Jesus
to the Children
Every year, Faith Ministries
conducts exciting Christmas programs for thousands of Mexican
children presenting the story of the birth of Jesus and explaining how
He can live in their hearts.
After watching a drama about the birth of Jesus, the children pray asking Jesus to forgive their sins and come live in their hearts. As they pray this prayer, we see the light of the Lord flood their countenance. Over and over again, with tears in our eyes, we know it's worth all the sacrifice and work to make these programs possible.
Each child is given a sack
with a toy, candy, peanuts, and a Gospel tract. For some of these
children this is the only gift they receive for Christmas. The
gifts Faith Ministries Mexico bears are only a small part of what is
given. God's Word going forth shines like a bright light through
the ministry teams, opening the hearts of people and leaving them hungry
for what the teams have - the living Jesus.
As of Christmas 2016, nearly 191,000 children in towns across Sonora and Chihuahua have received gifts with the help of Faith Ministries.
This tremendous outreach does
not exist apart from the love and care of the many individuals,
businesses, and churches that give so generously towards the Christmas
outreach. Thank you for your part in making this awesome outreach possible.
Christmas Prep Throughout the Year
As soon as one Christmas season ends we begin planning for the next year. It takes time to import the toys into Mexico so this is an
ongoing effort. You can participate in this
ministry by donating toys or money:
Small toys such as
matchbox cars, plastic animals, small stuffed animals, crayons and
coloring books, pretty pencils and hairpieces.
-
Offerings to purchase Mexican
peanuts and candy, for teams to travel to various villages, and for equipment, stage costumes and props.
