After we've invited the kids' families to join us for a Christmas party where we'll have a visit from a very special guest:
Franco, a member of our church-planting,
every year takes the opportunity to dress up as Santa
in order to share the Gospel in local kinder-gardens and primary schools (from August he stops shaving in order to have this authentic amazing white beard!).

This year we've invited Franco to redeem Santa's character showing how Jesus is both the real giver and God's best gift.

Join us in praying for this Gospel opportunity for families!!!
