Yuletide Cheer For PFS Care Club Beneficiaries
23 Dec 2020
Charity and kindness go hand-in-glove this festive season to bring Yuletide cheer to PFS Care Clubbers!
We are truly thankful for the generosity of Lifehouse Singapore (“Lifehouse”), a ground-up initiative made up of friends and community partners, collaborating for a singular purpose, to bless the less unfortunate in our community. In the light of the prevailing pandemic that has severely impacted PFS families; Lifehouse has partnered with PFS to bring some festive cheers to 62 PFS Care Club children!
Hand-made cards of encouragement, together with customised gift packs, containing a resplendent selection of stationery, books, snacks, bags, hand sanitizers, electronic gadgets and surgical masks, were thoughtfully assembled to bless our youths based on their specific age group. To ensure that the gifts are suitable for the recipients whose ages range from early childhood to late teens, Lifehouse has taken the added step to consult with our Care Club staff to identify the appropriateness of the items.
A Lifehouse volunteer enthused, “It was a wonderful opportunity to work with PFS to bring the joy of Christmas to the children of the PFS community. Christmas has always been a magical time for children where a surprise awaits within the gifts they receive… there are several items which is meant for the children to look forward to school re-opening and also stay protected when they resume regular activities outdoors”.
Their thoughtfulness certainly paid off as our young recipients were overwhelmed with surprise and gratitude to receive their individualised Christmas gift packs, to satiate their sweet tooth and prepare them for the 2021 school year. As one of the many guardians of these disadvantaged kids and youths, PFS is humbled once again by the bountiful grace of our Lord which He has repeatedly showered on us and our beneficiaries through kind and generous supporters of our cause to bless the inmates, ex-offenders and their families.
May we be reminded from God’s Word, as we seek to bless others in need, “The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.” John 1:14.
