Melissa Newell: Newsletter, December 2024
In her latest newsletter, Melissa shares about Christmas in Misahuallí as she serves with South American Mission Society (SAMS) Ireland.
Local protests caused disruption, restricting access in and out of the area, meaning supplies of food and gas for cooking were limited.
Thankfully the protests ended and the Church Christmas Events were able to go ahead. Plenty of sweets were shared and thrifty gifts given, as time was spent with community celebrating Jesus’ birth and considering the names He is given in Isaiah 9 ‘Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace’.
