Boxing Day - A box to give Thanks

This morning we had our Boxing Day Project as a church.
We went to the fire station,
the two local police stations, the army barracks, the on-call pharmacy, the hospital A&E department and the ambulance service. In each place we presented a box of chocolates with a card explaining the meaning of Boxing Day
with a comment from Philippians 2:3-9 about Jesus' sacrificial love on
the Cross and expressing our appreciation for those who sacrificially work to serve our community during the
Christmas season.

Everywhere we went we were very warmly received and everyone was very surprised to be thanked for their work. We are very thankful for this opportunity to live and share the Gospel in a simple way in our community, getting to know different contexts in our town.
