one thing i love about Sari Bari is celebration (this is not the first time i've said this). and no surprise - but Sari Bari does Christmas well. i'm really excited for my first Sari Bari Christmas. i'm excited to celebrate Emmanuel with my kolkata community, with the beautiful extended family that i'm being woven into here.
each year Sari Bari gives the ladies a gift. This year it will be a Sari, socks, and a sweater, which will cost about $25.00 for each lady. This year we have nearly 70 ladies who work for Sari Bari (pretty amazing, huh?!).
So as you begin to make Christmas wish lists, and begin buying gifts for others, would you consider sponsoring a Christmas gift for one of the Sari Bari ladies? your gift is tax-deductible, and can be made to Word Made Flesh either by following this link or going to www.wordmadeflesh.org there is a donate link on the bottom left of the homepage, or by sending a check to WMF (PO Box 70, Omaha, NE 68101) please designate your gift as "Kolkata: Christmas" but if you send a check, please don't write on the memo line, include a separate note!
merry christmas! (i know, it's a little early - i'm just getting ready)
