Belize Friends Church Holds Christmas party

On the 15th of December Belize Friends Church held a Christmas party, with 47 participants.

The toddlers were running around laughing and playing. The children and teenagers occupied the largest table with their heated discussions and loud laughter. Mothers were helping and engaging in conversations, disciplining their toddlers and enjoying. The young adults came in with big smiles on their faces. Carrols were playing in the background. There was Christmas at Belize Friends Church. When everyone had finally gathered (hours after we started to pick the first group) there was sharing of the meaning of Advent, and Jesus Christ, born as hope into our darkness. And for a few seconds everything turned completely silent, with the message in our hearts, that Jesus Christ came as a light of hope to the darkness of the south side of Belize City. With a full church hall, and hearts overflowing with thankfulness to God, we could glimpse the impact that Belize Friends Church has on this community.  

One of my personal highlights was that our newly formed USFW-Belize was helping to make this event happen.

Thank you to friends who supported with the funds to make this party, where Jesus Christ was made known and remembered.
