The kids all clapped for each other as they came forward when their names were called to receive their gifts.
They opened their bags, took everything out. Organized and put things back in then showed their friends and a few minutes later did the same thing over again.
It seemed like the kids were genuinely happy and thankful with what they received and the other kids were happy for each other and the things that were given.
They wrote thank you notes to their sponsors then we sang a song and ended in prayer and a picture of them with their new things.
It was a blessing to be delivering these gifts and be a little part of their lives and for them to see God's goodness to them.
Here are some pictures and video from the day.
