Grandpa and Grandma are visiting right now! Here's hoping you all had a blessed weekend. Now for our Mission Sunday links:
- Have you started your list of people you still need to get gifts this year? I realized I had left Christ off the list when I read Lysa TerKeurst's 37 Days of Kindness post. I love this idea of hers, and while there may not be 37 days left, there's nothing wrong with starting the countdown at 25, huh?
- Speaking of giving, here's another take on the gift list by Matthew West. Check it out for a free song download and a printable Christmas list.
- Looking for some great Christmas posts to inspire you and maybe change the way you view the holidays? Check out ChristmasChange:
- I love this "whining" post from mmm-BELLY-may Days, perhaps because I can so relate to it, as a returnee from a 3rd world country...
- Also one I can relate to: My Overloaded Brain...On Culture Shock at I Believe in Love.
- And another post from one of my favorite mission bloggers, Laura at Clearly Living, answering the question, "So, what do you do all day?"
- Prayer request for Shiloh, a mission mom in Paraguay, who lost sight in one eye a couple of weeks ago.
- If you've clicked on Josie Love's story before, I just wanted to follow up with this post of beautiful smiles on her face, finally with her new family in the US.
- Speaking of international adoption, here's a fundraiser gift idea with 30% of proceeds donated to a family adopting from Africa: a HOPE for AFRICA pendant

Thanks for re-posting my post on culture shock. It's a crazy thing, huh!? So your #9 talking about the Hope for Africa pendant...I have a friend who's really good friends with that couple adopting. I'm sure they appreciate you advertising as they raise money for their adoption. Their other little boy is so adorable!
I love giving...
My kids get crazy when they ask... Mom what do you want for Christmas and I answer... to be with my family. I don't want anything else.
I am going to try to incorporate giving that includes service... especially to the less fortunate.

I love all these, but 3,7,9 are going to get special attention! ;0)
