Give Joy!

$6,589 of $10,000 goal
Given by 14 generous donors in 11 weeks

Give so those struggling in life in the Philippines, can experience the joy of Christmas!

Nationwide

It's difficult to imagine a Christmas with no gifts, no special food or celebration. This makes it equally as difficult to imagine the joy that many feel here when they join one of the big parties we throw for families.

About the Project

His Heart Ministries are looking for donations to host a Christmas dinner for the His Heart family in Baguio, Philippines. We host this every year and children receive gifts as well as love and lots of fun. Lives are changed through these wonder-filled nights. We will host approx. 2500 people, and at $5 per head we are looking for $12,500.

About the Event

Guests eagerly line up to enter the gates, ready for games and prizes. I love watching their faces as they enjoy time together as a family, forgetting the everyday struggles and anxiety many face. The Christmas lights are up, carols are playing and the place is overflowing. We eat a special meal together, celebrate God's love and give gifts. Each child receives a t-shirt, a toy, & toiletries. Adults also enjoy the great meal and a small gift. But most of all, they receive joy and love.

About His Heart Ministries

His Heart Ministries is a Christian organization that endeavours to express the heart of God in tangible, real ways that will impact lives. Our love is not to be expressed with words alone but we believe that God has called us to demonstrate His love in everything we do, in our personal lives and our actions.

His Heart Ministries exists to see the goodness of God manifest here on earth in every sphere of society, but we have a strong desire to serve the very poor, to find the most desperate, the forgotten ones and those broken by hardship.

Sorry for taking so long to let you know. It was frantically busy and then I was off having a summer vacation. :)

The fun, the love, the sheer joy was so worth it all!

Thank you volunteers, workers, and to all of you who gave! Just amazing!
