Love – without counting costs
Hello everyone and a very Merry Christmas to all!
I am soon on my way to have Christmas with 52 children in the remote village of Vito in the high Andean mountains of Peru. A foto of some of the kids is at the top of this letter. This will be my second trip to see these kids and they are now one of the nutritional feeding programs that is provided by the Reliv Kalogris Foundation. I am blessed to be here to serve the children of Peru and also to be a part of this wonderful foundation that is providing nutritional products to thousands of children daily in many countries around the world. And it is my great blessing to be the hands and feet for this program here in Peru. This is probably the most unique Christmas I will have ever experienced as I will again live with these people for a few days and share their lives far away from the outside world.
Also after I return to Lima I will be blessed to share my sixth Christmas here with the children of the Posada de Amor in Cieneguilla, outside of Lima. Friends from back home have contributed funds for this celebration and we will have gifts for all the kids and a great fiesta. So I wish to thank those friends very much for making this Christmas possible for the kids.
I also want to remember Roseann Sacco who passed away recently and who loved these children very much. We will have many memories of Roseann to share with the kids who loved her at the Posada.
So to everyone I wish to extend my wishes to all of you and your families a very Merry celebration of the birth of Jesus. He is the reason for the season.
Until next time I am off on another grand God given adventure.
To Taylor Scott Benson- I love you son!! Merry Christmas
En El Nombre de Cristo with love,
Taylor
