Betikara Christmas Gathering Tour - 2006

          The Betikara Christmas gathering for 2006 was quite an event.  There was a lot happening on December 23, 2006 at the Betikara building.  First, everyone gathered for a time of bible teaching.
 

          Then the children did various things to show what they had learned from their bible classes during 2006.  The children preformed several skits.  Below Princy is “baptizing” a man who has accepted God’s word.
 

          Princy was the preacher during the skit that was preformed by some of the Betikara Lambs.  The children also sang songs and recited memory verses that they worked hard on for this day of activities.
 

          Of course, the Lambs had a lot of fun during all of the various activities that they were involved in.  However, I believe the real fun and excitement started with the passing out of the many Christmas gifts that were so bountiful on that day, thanks in part to you.
 

          After all of the gifts were passed out, and we finally got everyone settled back down to a low roar instead of a high pitched scream, we spent time together giving thanks to God for all of our blessings.  Then everyone settled down to the next item of business for the day.  Everyone helped empty the kitchen of all the food that was prepared for the Lambs, caregivers, workers and Betikara board members.  It was quite a time of fellowship and enjoyment.  Just look for yourself if you do not believe me.
