Christmas Celebration


The CGA family celebrated Christmas today. After closing the school year last week, all of the students returned for the morning's festivities. The secondary school students that had returned from their various schools led the program. They enjoyed a nice breakfast before assembling in the big hall. They started with some singing and then a skit about the real meaning of Christmas. Several students read from the Bible about the birth of Christ and why God sent him to Earth. A few of the students shared some encouragement with the others. Before they left, each student was blessed with a shoebox full of toys, candy and other gifts that were sent by Samaritan's Purse.

It was a good occasion that helped them to understand the reason we celebrate Christmas. The ultimate gift was God sending his own son to die for our sins so that we may have eternal life.
