christmas gift report - mobile teams
TRANSCRIPT
Mobile Teams, YWAM,
Bogota is an evangelistic
ministry that in the last 15
years has been doing
humanitarian programs in
various areas of the country,
among them Christmas
programs mostly for refugee
families whom have never
received any aid. They
receive help and through this
we hope to win them for the
Lord and help them in a
practical way so that they can
be productive and fulfilled.
From Bogota Colombia to our friends all around the world!

From Mobile Teams, YWAM Bogota , an evangelistic missions ministry committed to the extension of God’s Kingdom.
For many of these kids, it
was the first Christmas
present that they had ever
received. Tears, thank
you’s and smiles were our
great reward!

Jesus said, "Let the
little children come to
me, and do not
hinder them, for the
kingdom of heaven
belongs to such as
these.” Matt. 19:14
� In favor of
transformation
The help of so many was so valuable & the communities
themselves are very grateful.

QUIBDO, CHOCO
With your support and that of our volunteers, we were able to distribute 558 gifts to children between 0 and 15 years of age
and 74 youth.Even some of our volunteers
were benefitted.
The majority of the gifts cost between$12 and $30 USD.
With the individual gifts we tried to include articles for personal hygiene, clothes, schools
supplies and toys.
AMAZON
With the help of several people, we were able to send 350 gifts that mostly went to children of the Ticuna and Yaguas Mayuruma tribe, some 3-4
hours from the jungle city of Leticia.
BOGOTA
This time we distributed 356 gifts to children in Bolivar City, Juan XXIII & San Luis. For logistical reasons an equal amount of gifts were set aside for later delivery in places with great need.

For I was hungry and you gave
me something to eat, I was thirsty
and you gave me something to
drink, I was a stranger and you
invited me in Matt 25:35
� In favor of
Humanitarian Aid.
Everybody that s attends our programs receives
assistance AND of course,
God’s Blessing.
A Plate of Food Makes a
Difference
In several places children came to our program without having eaten, but it is incredible how we have
also recieved donations to prepare and give out meals and snacks for all of the participants. They have even thanked us with tears.
Children, youth and adults are all fed, no one is left out and no one is discriminated against. Everyone
is blessed!
Christmas Baskets
Many families literally have nothing to eat at Christmas or any gifts to give their children. Lack of jobs, little money,
extreme poverty causes people to spend this season with a lot of anxiety,
hopelessness and pain.
These provisions that we have taken become an incentive for the most needy. Sadly we cannot touch all the needs of the
thousands of families in our nation.
Agradecemos el apoyo de todos los que hicieron posible hacer una navidad alegre y con esperanza para mas de 1600 niños de nuestra nación. Ellos y nosotros se lo agradecemos con todo el Corazón, que Dios les bendiga y multiplique en abundancia.

But you will receive power when
the Holy Spirit comes on you; and
you will be my witnesses in
Jerusalem, and in all Judea and
Samaria, and to the ends of the
earth.“ Act 1:8
� In favor of our
nation.
Why do we do it?
A few years ago we heard about a recruitment strategy used by terrorist groups that caused us great pain. They would use a gift, candy and toy guns were
their principal strategy to buy the minds and damage the hearts of
their victims
Today we want to take children a gift, teach them to respect life, to do good and that way become a new generation that loves God
and their fellowman.
Our Commitment
It is hugely rewarding to carry out these Evangelistic &
Humanitarian Programs and we are quite willing to
continue,
BUT! we need a lot of Hands & Hearts to partner with us. We hope to continue counting with your support – we will always need and value it.
A thousand times Gracias!
and God Bless You!
