Christmas Gift Away Recipient #2: Ahmed & Hayfa H!
Nominator Andrea shared:
The Hamys are a refugee family from northern Syria with six kids. Their youngest was just born recently. They fled Syria after their house was destroyed and they faced tremendous social persecution in their home country. The Canadian government sponsored them to come to BC this past February. They are struggling financially for their basic daily needs, but despite losing everything, they are infectiously joyful.
We are praying that this gift can meet some of their financial and physical needs, but also make them feel welcomed and appreciated by their friends and neighbors. That they could see Christ’s love in a tangible way.
Listen to their on-air announcement:
I would like to nominate Lisa-Marie Gatenby. She lost her job and had to move out of her apartment and her son went to live with his dad in Harrison Hot Springs. Lisa is renting a room from me while he gets back on her feet. Lisa recently got a job as a waitress but the pay is not great. I know Lisa would love to have her son for Christmas but things are just too tight. I would love to help her out more than I already am but I too am struggling financially. I know this gift would be such a huge blessing to her.
