This Christmas season, thanks to the generosity of many contributors, Life for Sudan was able to assist more Sudanese families in New Hampshire than ever before.  We are always blessed by the giving spirit of individuals and churches and especially this year while surrounded by a poor economy. Wrapped gifts, books and gift cards to local stores were presented to a number of families in person on Christmas Eve Day.
A small sampling of Christmas gifts donated by generous contributors sorted and bagged for transport before distributing to Sudanese children and families.
Sudanese families receive their Christmas gifts after a prayer lead by Rev. John Yen. Many of the women in this photograph are part of an English as Second Language group lead by Linda Garrish Thomas. This class is held weekly at Grace Episcopal Church in Manchester, NH.
Life for Sudan President, Dennis Sasseville (right), thanks Rev. John Yen and two of his sons for helping to distribute Christmas gifts to Sudanese families. Rev. Yen and his family escaped persecution from Sudanese officials and immigrated to the United States several years ago to start a new life in freedom.
