Paul quotes Jesus in Acts 20:35, "It is more Blessed to give than to
receive."
Kenneth Ryan and Abigail delivered papers all year long in Sitka. They saved some of every pay check so that when they went to Grandma and Grandpa's house in the summer, they could pay for their four cousins to accompany them to the water park. What a blessing to see this spirit of sharing and giving.
Michael, 16, and Zachary, 15, came from Missouri to Colorado to work with their uncle in building construction for six weeks. It was hard work. They go tired. They missed their friends and family. They
learned a lot. At the end of six weeks they came to stay with Grandma
and Grandpa until their family came out at Christmas. Their parents
had enough money to make the trip but not enough to buy presents. So the boys, using their work money, provided presents for everyone.
What a joy to see them buy, wrap and place those gifts under the
tree - to see the anticipation of the joy of giving.
