Seeking Peace and Love this
Christmas 'Holy-Day' season.
Let's think about others
Dear Friend

As I watch the commercial holiday ads popping up everywhere which appeal to our greed and self interest with luxury goods and services we really don't need, a certain sadness comes over me that so many people are spending so much money on luxuries while others are struggling just to get basic necessities of life and they are the forgotten ones.  

I would ask you that when you are eyeing that exotic bottle of wine, or expensive electronic gadget to get as a gift for someone, that you think, just for a minute, about others such as those below who are desperate for help.  We (PCF) get requests for help every day and we regularly have to say 'No, I'm sorry we can't help right now' because we just don't have the funds.  Will you join our Army of Angels for a monthly recurring donation of $10 or more?  Each of the photos below are taken by our man Alex in Venezuela as he interacts with the local community. 
Below, we're seeking a place to get urgently needed blood tests with no cash and no credit. 
Below - No Christmas decorations for the house this year.  Yes.  That's their house in the background.  Imagine raising a family in those conditions!

  What do you do when     emergencies arise, the   hospital  has no supplies and   your budget is used up for the   month?

We've been sharing photos of Mariel over the months previous and her battle with cystic fibrosis.   Right now she's very ill and needs specialized tests and medicine and we've run out of resources at the moment. 


 It's not much but for those who receive it, it's a true blessing which puts smiles on faces like the little guy below...





Smiles like this make it all worth while!

The greatest luxury in life.... is to be happy! 
Have a Good Day! 

“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”  
Matthew 25:40

Mountains of thanks and love to our current supporters!  You are the best! 

And for those who simply can't help right now, we understand.  Please share this email with others and pray for us in any event!  You can use the link on top of the page.

If you can handle the equivalent of 2 cinnamon spice lattes a month, Join our Army of Angels and experience the JOY of sharing your love with those whose lives will be truly impacted! 

For more info on this project see our YouTube video playlist.  100% of all contributions go to those in need PLUS for every $ contributed it is usually matched by $2 or $3 more.  

I wish you much peace and love this Christmas!
