PARLEZ-VOUS FRANCAIS?

I was just chatting to a missionary friend in France tonight and he was telling me about his work and plans for Christmas outreach etc.As our primary 7 children are learning French at present,I suggested to him that it would be a good idea for them to send some Christmas cards and little gifts to the children associated with his church.We'll aim to have them parceled up and ready to post next week.It will be so good for our pupils to realise that Christmas is as much about giving as receiving.It will also be exciting for the french children to realise that people in Northern Ireland who they don't know, are thinking about them and care enough to do something special like this at Christmas.I'm blessed to realise tonight,that it's God who plants the little seeds,we call ideas and it's up to us if and how, we choose to put them into practice.I hope tonight that you feel the urge to do something a wee bit different for someone this Christmas and that you'll go right ahead and do it.You'll find a blessing will come right back to you.
