You are most welcome ! You and your family are in my prayers. May you have a Blessed and Joyous Christmas ! I pray that knowing you have your kids helps with the loneliness and isolation. Being far from home can be a challenge. As you settle down and meet more people , I pray that you are enveloped with warmth and love.

Hi ginnybell,

Thank you for sharing your wonderful way of looking at life with us. Living each moment to the fullest is SO IMPORTANT ! I have heard that all my life , and not until I lost most of my ability to get around and enjoy life without being in pain or having mobility problems did I understand . My God and my daughter are the most important things in my life. Thank God I still have both. That is all I need. The rest can fall by the wayside.

Please , anyone who has anything good in your lives , be thankful for what you do have and don't always be searching for more. Appreciate life and all the beauty around you . If you had a meal today , be thankful . There are those who haven't eaten for days. If you have more than one set of clothes , you are rich according to some people in Third World countries. Do you have a car ? You are Blessed beyond measure. Is everyone healthy in your family ? You have riches . Can you read? A world of amazing things is open to you. Can you walk without pain ? I have a friend without a leg. who would love that gift.  

 If you are searching for more this Christmas , look at what gifts you already have in your life. Celebrate family ,food ,warmth , water you can drink without getting sick , a roof over your head , clothes , shoes , books , music , a helping hand . Christmas is a time for thankfulness and giving ,and yes , sometimes recieving . All of these things are wonderful and full of joy , but please also know that you are already blessed . All  of us have at least one thing to be thankful for . If you don't know what it is , start searching your life and thank God for that one thing. You will be amazed at how your attitude will change . A small spark of joy and thankfulness will start .Before you know it , you will have a brightly glowing flame .Cherish  life.

My 12 year old son has been through so much pain this last year.  His grandmother commited suicide last September, his dad died in March, and the Dr.s found a large tumer in my brain.  I have had major surgery and 6 weeks of radiation and am happy to say Im a survior.  This Christmas I cant afford to get Christmas presents because I am disabled and still paying off funeral bills from my husband.  My son is very smart and came to me the other day.  He told me not to worry because having me was all he needed this Christmas.  I agree with that!  Being here with him is my gift.  He is always thinking of everyone else.  I would love to get him presents but when it comes down to it what matters is our family.  Hold them close,make up with them if your not getting along.  There isn't anything more important than loving and being loved.  God has blessed us in this saddness.  Remember it could always be worse, what you think is important may not  be, and what you think is unimportant may be the most important.  Live everyday like its your last.  God will provide for us in some way I just know it.  Happy Holidays!!!

When I left my home with my daughter to escape an abusive husband , I didn't want to go to a shelter . I was afraid of what it would be like. I moved in with different friends instead. My friends were really kind and helpful , but it did put alot of pressure and stress on everybody.

I look back and think that I should have done it differently. A shelter would have had all the things my daughter and I needed at the time : counseling , help with what to do next , other women and kids who could relate., and a place to stay at least for a while (we lived with 5 different families. They were wonderful , but kind of passed us around from family to family -we all knew each other and everybody wanted to help.This gave everybody a chance to help , but left my daughter and I with an even more lost feeling.)

If you are afraid of going to a shelter , don't be. They have heard every story in the book .  

Here is an idea of what it will be like :

 HI Soulight, Thought everyone would like this...... :)

Christmas brings such a time of love
Each tender heart holds so much of

Unselfishness thrives, trust is strong 
The purpose to give, send love along

A time of pleasantries, patience too
Good wishes to all, all feelings true

Thankfulness follows each fine deed
Gifts from our God, never from greed

Great the rewards that joy does bring
Like the beauty in hearing angels sing

We pray for our loved, each so dear
Especially those who can’t be near

Many leave home to bravely serve
All freedoms we have, they preserve

Do pray for our troops, as we should
And their families too, if you would

Give thanks to our Lord, His only Son
And cherish His Christmas, everyone.

Hello all,

I am a mother of three children, the ages are 6,8,10.  I am currently looking for any kind of information to help me with providing a christmas for my children.  Maybe a good JOB LEAD

I am currently unemployed due to a reduction in force from the company I was let go from.  I worked for this company for the past 5 years and one day I went into work and found out when we merged with another company.  I was the employee they let go due to other employees having more time than me.  That is when it all started. I always drilled into my children, they have to work for what they get and without an education it won't be done.  I worked full time, a full time mom, and on my little bit of free time, we volunteered our home for unfortunate children that didn't have no where to go.

I had to face the children that I was solely taking care of on my own.  Mom did not have a job.  We couldn't live like we used too.  We couldn't do the things we were used too, and that we couldn't help others when we couldn't help ourselves. 

 No money coming in and not knowing what we we going to do next.  I ended up loosing my home in ohio and relocated to Monroe GA.  My mother helped me find a home here in Georgia.  Now I am in the Job market trying to find a job.  I currently get unemployment, but by the time I pay the bills, we barely have enough for food a week.   I ended up having to go to a hospital last week because I could not walk due to my osteprosis.  I did not have the money for my medication after paying the bills.  The hospital required me to pay 100.00 before leaving the hospital.  I told the lady, I only had 20.00 on me at that time.  She said well we will take that.  I didn't know what I was going to do for food for the week.  Then the prescription that they gave me to go and get filled cost almost 80.00.  I was not able to get that filled because my children had to eat.  So you can see what kind of situation that my family is in right now. 

Last year around this time, me and my children took and adopted a family that had six children.  This was a  blessing that we were able to do that for another family.  We took 4 truck loads of toys, clothing, and gifts to this family.  This is how we celebrated our christmas.   

I am not able to do this for a family this year, now I am in a situation that I need to find some kind of help for my family.  I have been praying that I could find some information that I could possible find an agency to help my family for christmas.  Help with a job lead or something.  If anyone has any information on anything that will help me and my family, feel free to email me at louisem169@aol.com

If I could find one present per child I would be greatly appreciated.  I just feel so bad that I am not able to help another family this christmas. 

Thank you so much the Moore Family

CHRISTMAS 2007 - ideas for a no or low cost Christmas

By soulight - on Nov 28, 2007
Posted in soulight 

 

December 22 , 2007  Well , it may be too late to recieve assistance if you haven't applied at this date . Still , if you have small children , there are things that you can do . Please try the pages below for many very low cost / no cost gifts that you can make.

Please remember that things do not fill an empty heart . Love does. Show love to your family . Celebrate what you do have . You already have more than you know . Just start making a list of the good things . Is your family healthy ? together? Do you have lights ? heat? water ? a car ? food ? There are many who do not have that much

The Salvation Army in my town had requests from 2,000 families this year . Only 500 recieved help . I am not saying this as a depressing thing , but to show that many are in the same spot that we all are.

 

Still , start making that list of things to be happy for . Everyone can come up with something if they try.

__________________________________________________

Risking sounding like a broken record : I don't have money to give.

You don't know how much that I pray that I did ( for that matter , you don't know how much that I pray I had money for my own family for Christmas- an addendem - it doesn't really matter - we have so much already !)

 

 

Still , MONEY DOES NOT BUY HAPPINESS ! We can all be happy without things if we work on the really important parts of living .

 

 

FAMILY , FRIENDS , LIVING IN A FREE COUNTRY , SHARING , BEING HAPPY TO HAVE WHAT WE HAVE AND NOT ALWAYS WANTING MORE - THESE ARE ALL THINGS THAT BRING TRUE JOY IN OUR LIVES IF WE LET GO OF ALL THE MATERIAL THINGS WE THINK WE NEED.

 

If you think you are deprived , think of our fellow human beings living on the streets , or in third world countries that walk 10 miles with a sick child on their back only for the child to die at the clinic because they ran out of the proper medicine - THAT is what it is like to do without.

 

Please , learn how to be happy with what you have and don't always want more. Your children deserve a good role model.My daughter and I have no money for presents this year . I decided to set the mood and look at all that we do have ( which is ALOT !) Now , both of us are not only OK with it , but we are having FUN and we both feel very FESTIVE and FULL OF JOY with no presents , imagine !!?!!

If you are in the same boat , be the one to set the mood . It may turn into a Christmas to remember.

 You can still use the suggestions on my Christmas pages , and create a wonderful , Blessed holiday for your family. Or....forget presents all together ,and be happy with what you have . It works.

 

                                         

After all , it's not our birthday !

Still , I got a gift !

What is this free Gift that God offers through His Son ?

I read your post and i see the scam artists right here in my town.

 

And ill tell you that if you go to food bank here ,the workers think everyone is a scam artist.

I recently lost my job i work part time looking for full time work,and i had to go to food bank,sign up for toys for tots and apply for welfare benfits,its degrading. Those workers deal with so many who really dont need help that they are standoffish to those who do.

 

I have 3 shut off notices,close to be evicted,losing my car scrounge for gas money,its unreal,and to ask for help and to know that you are going to be treated that way makes it much worse.

But on the happy note it also makes you want to do more to get rid of needing that help.

 

I hope all can find help that need it,it is truly hard to get help anymore,i have 3 boys and i find it hard just to keep food on the table,but i manage and hopefully all that read this can get help and someday will be able to help someone else in trouble.

Just remember everyone unless they were born rich has been where you are now or close to it or much worse,so even an encouragement or kind word is a big help.

If you live in butler county,pa the toys for tot program is only taking kids for few more days their number is 724-865-9852

And ive heard that st vincents food bank is the better one to join.

If i find anything else that helps ill post it.

Hello everyone whos in need this year! i understand fully what your going through as i have been there! not only now as a new father but also when i was a child it was tough! i really hope you all find help and peace this year! but please when you do find a company or somone/somthing simalar to help, please have all doucumentation and througho proof to provide about your desprite situation upon request, many if not all of these companys and independent good people will requrie some proof and doucumentation about how serious and in need you really are!!! i know its hard to believe but there are people who in my opioion are very "sick" and "evil"!! they come on to sites such as this looking for good harted people to give money and gifts when really they are actually doing fine! they are trying to "steal" and decieve who ever they can to take free money and/or gifts for there own use! even if they may not be rich so to speak some people who ask for things dont really need it they could be fine on there own but they are greedy and decitful trying to "rob" and use good honest kind hearted people for there own benifits! i know its hard to believe that there could be such sick evil mothers and fathers, men, and women who lie about the sevarity or actuall neededy ness of there situation only to gain and take what ever they can get there hands on! but it happends alot more then you may think! i now voullinteer at the salvation army(where by the way any body whos in need for anything should visit especially during christmas! they will help with gifts for kids and food!)but you will need to have proof that your in need and not "abusing" so to speak there great frindly orginasation! to recieve gifts! this proof could be very simple such as a "social assitance stattment" also known as "welfare" statment just stating your monthly income and other things such as this!i.e.. eletric bills, other bills with some form of id for you and your children! but other then that i would incourage everyone who is in need to get in touch with the local salvation army in your neighbourhood they helped me and many of my friends give there children a happy plentyful christmas! so if your a mother or father in need this yera check out the local salvation army and please try to avoid asking for cash from strangers on these types of sites not because all of you are theifs but its a sad common fact that out of every 8 request for cash/gifts from independent people i.e.. a good hearted man/women, whos not connected with a falculty such as or close to the salvation army out of every 8 request from people, more then likly 1 or 2 of those 8 people are frauds who may not even have children at all or maybe they have children but really arent in the desprite need that they make it out to sound like! please if your thinking of sending money to a family stating there in desprite need DO NOT, ever just send money to any one no matter what there story is! if there asking for money rather then food, or help centers in there area it most likly is a scam!please actually NEVER EVER send money to ANYONE regardless of there situation as they may "claim" it to be so bad, the truth is you just dont know who is asking for that money from there computer? especially if anyone says please send money through paypal or another simalar direct money transfer system! if they are in serious need of help please refer them to a local emergency help center, or welfare center! there honestly is no reason for ANYONE to be asking for cash on the interenet regardless of there situation! if they are in such desprite need for= food,gifts or money for bills, they can call a local salvation army, welfare and or simalar office whos goal is to help people who may be facing eviction, lights getting turned out, no food,no gifts, there is always a center to help familys with children regardless of there childs age or health! there is always more then enough adaquite help for people who are less fortinate! there is NO NEED for anyone (mothers,fathers,caregivers,etc....) to be asking tottal strangers for "cash" or really even "gifts" if you need these things such as cash and or gifts, help paying bills please dont ask people to deposit money into your bank account or paypal account without even meeting with and or providing valid proof that you are in real need this just leaves to much chance for fraud and what i call "evil" "selfish" people who have ruined the chance for honest good trust worthy people to recieve the help they need to lie and decieve people into depositing money into there account for there own lavish spending needs! so again NEVER EVER no matter what the fancy sad story may be weather true or false send money to familys or people in need on the net the best most helpful thing you could do to help is maybe if you have determined they are %100 honest and have provided enough proof that they are in serious need maybe send a non refunable food card i.e (food gift card) that can not be changed for cash! or send second hand clothes, or toys you are no longer using to them aswell if you are in there area you could drop of caned food and/or other food items! and the other most helpful thing anyone can do for someone in need is help direct them to a emergincy help center such as welfare,salvation army, and/or any service simalar to these which only goal is to help provide food,clothes,gifts and not only this they offer life building skills and money management, counciling and other skills on a ongoing basis to try and prevent this from happening to them in the future! dont you think giving the skills and education to change, would be much more effective then "bandageing the problem for a short while, only to have the same familly in need the years to come!" by giving money and new toys is fine but wont help them to learn life skills, or get full one on one or familly counciling and build a long lasting relationship with a counciller who can always help any time of the year weather it be help paying bills, food,getting gifts for christmas! or even just someone to talk to when you need a helping hand and someone to listen maybe give advice! think of it the best most responsible thing you could do to help would be to direct them to a center that could provide help now and for the years to come! in much more ways then just giving money or toys! think about it always say to someone in need the best thing i can do for you and your family is not give you money and toys but help you get in touch with a counciller, who can help you with ANY problem you may have weather it be financial, emotional, and or physical! so again NEVER EVER GIVE money or toys over the internet, instead give the gift of life or maybe a non refundable food voucher for a grocerystore, some toys your children dont use anymore or if you live in the same area you can meet with that particular familiy and bring food to there house such as caned food and/or frozen, fresh meat and vegitibles!and judge using your own descretion weather they are in real need of fianancial help! but other then these great tips please do not EVER, EVER, give money, and or brand new toys only give toys if you are %100 sure they are in need, such as if you live in the area you could meet with them or something along those lines!and see, but PLEASE DONT EVER SEND MONEY NO MATTER WHAT THE STORY IS OVER THE NET, there are just to many theifes looking for a quick buck and some will go very far with elabrite sad, sad stories "schemes"such as death in the family, bad health of themself or baby, no home to live in,handicaped children! the list goes on and on as im sure you could imagine, they will say whatever they can think of that may make an honest hard working man/women feel sorry or sad and give as much as they can to get what ever they can such as cash, brand new toys, and things along those lines! if someone is in desprite need for help they will be more then greatful for some advice,food, and or used toys! if you offer something such as food voucher,used toys, and or advice but they say or make a story about how they need cash only DO NOT go with it! if they arent more then excited with a donation of a non refunable food voutcher, used gift, and or valuble advice of where to go for great help then you no they arent in as bad a state as they are claming! just use common sense when helping others! its really sad but in the world we live in today its hard to trust! especially when it comes to giving money to stranges or new gifts! you just dont know anymore!give them the best gift this holiyday season! the gift of knowledge! tell them to visit there local salvation army, and or welfare office to get all the help and more then they need! not to mention all free and helpful counciling and direction! and god bless all you mother and fathers who are truly in a hard spot this year! i hope you go to a salvation army, welfare office or call your local operator and ask for the type of help your looking for theres always help out there if you look! more then just asking for money or new toys! im sure you will agree if your in real need anything someone can offer will be greatly excepted i.e... food vouchers,new/used toys,food in general, and or advice or help to find local offices to help with christmas and/or any other help weather it be in the winter or summer, you have no childre or 8 it doesnt matter theres always help out there! please refrane from asking for "cash" be deposited in to a bank or paypal account! theres just to many scammers out there and because of this people should never ever send any amount of money to anyone for anything regardless of there story! true or other wise! and remember ive been there and still use those sevices myself! im not one of those ignorant people who had every thing handed to them on a sliver platter and now im trying to talk about a situation i no nothing about from personall experence, such as those many polititions and govenment who talk about things they really dont understand or have never been through it themselfs! thats much easier to talk about and make descions about things based on loose knowledge! where as i have been right where you are and know excatilly first hand how it feels and the negitive stigma attached along with going through those hard stressful times! especially the holliday seasons!! Thanks again guys for listing and understanding that although there are a lot of true honest, familiys in desprite need theres just as many people who are doing it for the money when in fact there really are doing more then fine all by them self!

Your site is great.  I think Christmas is more about children than gimmy me.   My mother and I take in a lot of foster children (mostley on emergency cases)  Although we had one boy for 6 years and 2 little girls for 2 years.  Gi ving them love and understanding is so much more important that material things.

we will use your site for ideas for them to have a great christmas this year.

Thank you Emil , I know that when a site is re-vamped and improved it takes a while to iron out all the little things that might not totally work at first. I do love the new layout , and I am still ironing out my own little things too ! : ) soulight

Dear Soulight: I also look forward to this page. I hope you can post some Chicken Soup for the Soul stories about the true lessons of Christmas to help people reset their values and be less caught up in the materialistic trappings which leave us feeling unfullfilled. Blessings and Thanks for all you do. Elaine

Hi MFEMF You don't know how much I wish I could give everyone food ,and money. Unfortunately , I have less than 7 dollars in my own bank account ,and it has been that way for months. The reason I started my Christmas pages is because this is the only way I can give this year. With information that hopefully will assist people in creating their own special Christmas . I will keep you in my prayers. In His Grace, soulight Oh , and as far as food goes , if you try my single mom aidpage , there are many sources that may help you. Take care , and I hope you have a blessed Christmas. soulight
