Christmas for Kids - Record Participation in 2004

Christmas is a special time of year for millions of children throughout the world.  However, for the orphans of Ukraine, Christmas Day is like any other day of the year.  This winter marks our 5th year of providing Christmas gifts for some of the orphans with whom we work throughout the year. 

This fall, we had a record number of churches who partnered with us to collect Christmas gifts.  Christians from the following congregations collected over 850 gifts which will be distributed later this year: 

  • Arlington Church of Christ (IA.)

  • Church of Christ of Madison (Madison, WI.)

  • Footville Church of Christ (Footville, WI.)

  • Friendswood Church of Christ (Friendswood, TX.)

  • Hillcrest Church of Christ (Abilene, TX.)

  • Lamont Baptist Church (IA.)

  • Rochester Church of Christ (Rochester, MI.)

  • Rockwall Church of Christ (Rockwall, TX.)

  • South Main Church of Christ (Weatherford, TX.)

All of these congregations are to be commended for their generosity and love for these children whom they have never met!

We are also excited because we have more people coming to deliver Christmas gifts this year than ever before.  For many years, it was Andrew and Steve and a few Ukrainian Christians, however, this year 8 Americans will be joining Andrew Kelly and they will be working alongside 4 Ukrainians to distribute gifts to children in four orphanages.  Please keep the following people in your prayers as they travel and minister to the children:

  • Alyona Zorina (Mariupol, Ukraine) *

  • Andrew Kelly (Mariupol, Ukraine) *

  • Arthur Kasaryan (Donetsk, Ukraine) *

  • Caroline McMahon (Rochester, MI.)

  • Debra Reymundo (CA.)

  • Dema Grischyuk (Donetsk, Ukraine) *

  • Donovan Keim (Millersburg, OH.)

  • Jeff Moehrke (Footville, WI.)

  • Julia Ronk (Footville, WI.)

  • Lance Atchison (Dallas, TX.)

  • Patti Moehrke (Footville, WI.)

  • Tatyana Burak (Mariupol, Ukraine) *

  • Taylor McMahon (Rochester, MI.)
