Christmas Catalogue 2021

Christmas is a wonderful time of year. It is the season to celebrate the birth of Christ. It is also a good time to count our many blessings while remembering the less fortunate.

During the Christmas season it is appropriate to reflect upon the wonderful precedent set by the Three Wise Men who honoured Christ by offering gifts of significance. These three kings created a legacy of generosity and compassion.

Might I respectfully suggest that this Christmas would be a great time for you and your family to help a special needs child and her or his family living in either Africa or Central America?

Why? Because we are reminded in 2 Corinthians 9-7 that “God loves a cheerful giver.”

He who oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker,
But whoever is kind to the needy honours God. Proverbs 14:31

Plant Trees for a Greener World.

In memory of the late great Desiderio Martin Pablo of Todos Santos, Guatemala, Embrace is supporting the long-running reforestation program started by Desiderio over 40 years ago. This nursery has successfully planted over 4 million trees and has inspired local schools to organize two reforestation days per year. On these days, all of the school children hike into the mountains and plant tress germinated in “Desiderio’s Nursery.”

Buy a Child with Cerebral Palsy a Walker – or – a Wheelchair!

Tragically, maternal child healthcare is often quite poor within the Global South. This results in a high incidence of cerebral palsy. In Western Uganda, thousands of children and young adults, are dependent upon walking aids or wheelchairs. Fortunately, these devices are manufactured locally – significantly cutting the cost per unit.

Locally manufactured walker - $50
Locally manufactured wheelchair - $300
