Blessing the Children of Kyrgyzstan

Throughout the past week and into the new year, the team on the ground in Kyrygzstan has been and will continue to take Christmas and God's love to many children and families.  The actual Christmas time over there is January 7 and they celebrate their new year like Christmas here.

The Wright's for the last several years have organized a "pie in the face" challenge. To anyone who raises $500, their friends can throw a pie in their face.  Just think what kind of Christmas one can give for over $10,000 raised this Christmas.  That is alot of pie in the face. The joy is being spread from one end of the country to another. The vision of the Wrights is totally amazing. They see and think of things no one else does!

Here is just one picture of the many celebrations that have taken place throughout the country. This is a picture of the children we know well and see when we are there. Many of them lived in our community until they were moved 2.5 hours away last year.  What a blessing to see them.

Our journey continues as we are seeking God's heart and direction for us in the new year.  Thank you all for taking the time to stop by our blog....you are important to us.
