Boxer day here in the Bahamas.

This day is set aside each year for helping out the people that don't really have much for Christmas to look forward to. But every year Calvary Bible opens their doors and ask the neighbors and friends through out the island to come and enjoy a nice hot meal and some of God's love. By looking at the pictures below you can see how many do come out. Plus they were blessed with a time of worship and just having some fun. Then they had a chance to hear God's Word and to understand His love and why we have Christmas.
I really like the idea of seeing all the kids that came out to help us. I know sometime we think our kids are all about themselves. But days like this I see His love come out in their ways of showing serve. At the end of the program, the women of our church gave out some real nice gifts to the older folks and the small one even got something too. I thank my Lord each and everyday, for letting me be part of His ministry here and just able to give back in serve.
The night before was called Junkanoo. That is the time that the people of the Bahamas come out at 2 am and have this ting called a rush. That is when there is a parade. I have shown you pictures before on this. I am sorry to say I didn't get up soon enough to run down town and walk and take pictures this year. I hope on New years night to go then. I will talk with you soooooon.
