Link-Up Your Samaritan's Purse "Gift of Love" Post Here!
December 5th, 2009
One of the greatest things we can instill in our children is how to help and bless the poor, the downcast, the rejected, the orphans, the widows.
One way we can do this (there are many) is by sitting with your kiddos and having them choose some wonderful “gifts” for those in need. It is super easy to grab your babes (or the whole family-even better) and go through the list of “gifts of love” from the Samaritan’s Purse Christmas gift catalog and pick one or two or ten to give. 90% of your donation goes directly to the gift.
This is so easy.
What’s stopping you?
Here are some of my favorites…
- Feed a hungry baby for a week $9
- Give an orphan a month of loving care $35
- Rescue a child from bondage and abuse $75
- Provide care for AIDS orphans and widows $45
- Supply a community with clean water $18 (for a family)
- Bibles and Christian literature $15
In order to participate in this link-up, write up a post about your favorite “gift of love” and then link to Samaritan’s Purse so others can donate. You can leave the link to your post here so other’s can find it.
Oh, and if you purchase a gift by Sunday at 9pm EST, you have 10 extra entries into this Sondra Roberts purse giveaway (retail value $107).
Link-up will stay up through December 25th.

“For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in;
naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.’
“Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink?
‘And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You?
‘When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’

I love that you’re bringing awareness to Samaritans Purse. We’ve been donating shoeboxes for a few years now and have decided that this will be our family tradition as the children grow. At some point, we hope to be able to take our family out and deliver the boxes to children in need. My sister was able to do that in Botswana, Africa and said the joy on the childrens faces is something she’ll never forget. Amazing, AMAZING organization sharing Christs love in such a practical way. Love.
