Pastor Philip and the team in Karamoja hosted a Christmas party for the children of Ezekiel 37 Ministry on December 23. The children were also given a gift of food to have a Christmas meal with their families. 2015 has been particularly hard in Karamoja due to lack of rain for their crops. So this blessing of food was greatly appreciated by the children and their families. They received rice, posho, flour, meat, onions, salt, sugar, tea, cooking oil, and soap. The amount is actually enough for several meals but the intention is for them to enjoy Christmas as a family.
Below are the pictures from the day. I think by the smiles on their faces you can tell they were very happy with the gifts they were given. Thank you to everyone who supported this day and the food for the children. May God bless you all abundantly.
