Well done Lyon/Carson Small Group! The Lord certainly used your generous giving in His name to bless this precious family in ways that we will truly never be able to understand. Kimberly Morgan is the grandmother and
full time guardian of her late daughter's two children,
Mikal-her 10 year old
granddaughter,
and Jayln, her eight year old grandson. they truly have very little, especially in
the way of clothing. We delivered them each a HUGE Christmas bag full of the goodies displayed in the pictures below. They were going to come home from school yesterday to see the bags under the tree (the tree and all the ornaments were brought to them by their school, as
Mikal's name was drawn in a drawing. Otherwise, they do not have a tree. Never had one single ornament.) with their names on them!
Let me report some of your donations as a group:
-Over $250 was collected for us to go shop for most of these clothes for them both,
-Several went and bought them some clothes,
-Several people bought them the few toys that you see, and some presents that they wrapped,
separately from what you see
laid out below.
-Gas gift cards were bought,
Wal-Mart Gifts cards, etc...
-We also went to
Lifeway to get them some follow-up
discipleship materials, and got Bible's and other materials from the church!
Here is the little boys gifts: (minus some that were already wrapped)
(To recap: 2 jogging suits, 4 pairs of pants, 4+ shirts, new shoes, hat/gloves, etc...)
The little girls gifts:
(4 pairs of pants, 10+ shirts (some for summer), 2 pairs of shoes, 3 little jackets, etc...)
Since the kids were at school when we went to deliver the gifts, here are some of their school pictures that are on the wall. The big pictures are of them.
Here is their grandmother, the one that got saved on our first visit! Her name is Kimberly Morgan,
and she is beyond blessed!
She even promised to take them
through a book we bought them that focuses on the real meaning behind Christmas,
and the discipleship nooks we bought her. Please keep them in your prayers, as they have all got pretty serious
health issues (between the 2 children, they area on over 17 medications).And pray that the kids will come to
accept Christ soon, too.
Thanks for being the hands and heart of Christ during this season that is all about Him,
and making Him known.
