Relational Gifts

Okay, now that we are not buying gifts for each other on the birthday of Jesus, we are giving "relational gifts". What are those? Gifts that cost little or no money....but show that you know and love the person who's getting the gift. I got two today already. One was an e-mail affirming my ministry. What a great way to begin my day!

The other gift was a visit from my friend Don. He brought me a pair of gloves, an apple fritter, and a delicious cup of coffee! In turn I gave him two old CD's I came across the other day....with Sax music on them. He's learning to play the sax. Those are relational gifts. I hope next year we have a workshop where people can come and make relational gifts for their loved ones. And then the money we would have spent on each other can be used to change our world - in Jesus name!

Remember, people all around the globe are praying for clean water. Help us dig another well this year.

Merry Christmas everyone!
