The week leading up to Christmas is always a busy and fun time for us in the Mole. We show Christmas movies every night of the week. Each person gets popcorn and at least 20 people win rice/beans each night.
On December 24th we host a special lunch with the elderly folks from the community. Then at night, we serve hot chocolate and peanut butter sandwiches during the Christmas Eve Service.

MOVIES & FOOD GIVEAWAYS
It was POURING down rain the first few nights of our Christmas Movie Marathon. The first 3 nights we had to meet in the cafeteria instead of on the basketball court.
Each person received popcorn and a raffle ticket. At the end of each movie, we called out 20 tickets. If your number was called, you received a bag of rice & beans. Each bag we gave away had enough servings for 3 days of food for a small family.

Granmoun (Elderly) Meal
Every Christmas Eve we invite 100-200 elderly folks from the community for a special meal full of meat, vegetables, salad, fried bananas, and rice/beans.
This population is often overlooked, which is why we make it a point to celebrate them each year. This is our family’s personal ministry that we throughly enjoy serving at. Here’s a look at this year’s meal!

Christmas Eve Service
It began to rain again on Christmas Eve so we had to move the service inside the church. We always serve hot chocolate and peanut butter sandwiches for this service.
It’s always our goal that those who come leave with a full belly as we celebrate the birth of Christ. Here’s a look from this year’s service.
