Luke 2:10-12 "And the angel said to them, "Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.11For unto you is born this day in he city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger."

Merry CHRISTmas Y'all! As I write to y'all we are 1 day away from Christmas. The excitement level is high on everyones part! My beautiful wife will soon begin to cook the beloved Birthday cake for Jesus. We will open the presents and play all the day long. We will eat a big dinner hang out together, drink coffee, watch the kids, laugh and play and it will be awesome. I pray that we would never loose our focus on why we celebrate CHRISTmas. Not the presents, not the food, not the fellowship but JESUS CHRIST. The REAL reason for the season. During this month of celebrations, Party's, and whatnot, Please don't loose focus on why we celebrate. GOD became man and dwelt among us! Immanuel. May the King receive the Glory due HIM this Christmas. From the Fox family and from yours also! GLORY be unto the King Jesus!
James 1:27 Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.

One of the girls that Placy is disciplining has to do community service at an Orphanage. She invited us to go with her and hang out with the kids. There are 13 boys of varying ages. Placy & the kids baked cookies for them and we donated some used clothes to the boys. We got everything ready to go and on the way there we got hit by a taxi! He about took off the front end of the X-Terra. After a few good well placed kicks the the bumper everything was fine and we were on our way. We got there a bit late but in Xalapa that means on time! We had about 6 people from our church show up. Jorge (my FAT Boy) got up and shared the Gospel of Christ with them, Julio sang some songs and Logan, Isa, & Ale, handed out presents. It was a really great time. I thank GOD Almighty that HE allowed us to be a blessing to those poor kids. Why Poor Kids ? Because they have NOTHING but each other. No mom & dad to hung them at night, to love on them. They will spend CHRISTmas Alone. Please pray for them and everyone else that is less fortunate than us. We have had a family that is attending IBUC once a month. They live 10 hrs away. They come into town because the son (Fernando 10yrs old) has leukemia. Our Elder Don Cesar & I got to share the gospel with them at Church this time. They made no descion, but Salvation is a work of the LORD. We just need to share when the opportunity presentes itself. We already had planned to invite the Jovenes to the house for the Superbowl of Mexican Futbol (Soccer), so we invited them also & they came! I wish I had a picture I could share with yall of Fernando's face. Pure happieness! As he played with Logan & his friends at the house. We fed them WELL then they left for the bus station to start their 10hr ride home. Please pray for the health & salvation of this family. GOD knows them and desires that they come to know HIM.
