After he fell down, I helped my brother and gave him a cuddle. I always feel happy when I’m helping others. I like to follow Jesus’s example of kindness and love.

My grandparents live in China. I pray every day for my family to be safe, healthy, and happy. I hope I can visit them soon.

We made 50 Christmas cards for people without homes who were staying in a temporary shelter in our town. We wanted to make sure they knew they were loved at Christmas.

We set up a “giving tree” outside our house. We invited neighbors to do a good deed and then hang an ornament on the tree. Neighbors were happy to see so many good deeds happening. We are planning to make this a Christmas tradition!
