Christmas Book Drive ~ Migrant Workers' Children

Posted on 10:11 by john mycal

Not all children have books for Christmas or any other time of year.
Many children don't even have children's magazines, coloring books, crayons or pencils of their own; and, they're lucky if they can find any to share.

In our immediate area in South Florida, there is a shelter for migrant workers which seeks to provide care for the too many children and mothers left in poverty, and who live virtually homeless.  Not only do these children lack basic needs, but
to ask for a book or books of their own
would be impossibility thinking for them.

If you would like to participate in a Christmas Gift of Books for these children and their mothers, please leave a comment with your email

Thanking you, and God be with you this Christmas
