Dear Emmanuel Family,

What is Gratitude?

“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.”

We pray our gratitude finds a place in your home tonight, as you celebrate together the love and grace you constantly extend to us. Your love, support and prayers make Emmanuel a home, our food a feast and strangers become family. Your love and support inspires us to be grateful for the past, to have peace for today and it allows us to create a vision for the future of our children. Thank you for changing the lives of children who are suffering into lives filled with hope for a better life.

We are so grateful for each one of YOU! You make our work with the children at Emmanuel possible. We know we say this over and over, because its true.
