We have just received a letter from Bedline, though it is not clear if this was written before the hurricane or not; we are still waiting for further news about the impact of the hurricane on the area in which Bedline lives.

In her latest letter, Bedline writes about her friends at the project, Magna and Nelson, Samantha and Rosemarie. She is looking forward to Christmas and enjoys decorating for that season. It’s good to be able to pray not only for Bedline, but also for her family and friends, who are also supported by Compassion. As we think about Christ’s advent in Bethlehem, we are thankful that we can make a difference to one child in Haiti and thank you all for your faithful support.

Compassion is running a free online Advent calendar which gives further information about the work they do and gives stories of the children they are helping. Behind each door of the Christmas advent calendar, you can discover brand new stories from Compassion-supported children, inspiring videos and fun activities. Why not have a look?
