From December 16 to 20, Guangxiao Church in Guangzhou, China's coastal-southern Guangdong Province launched a campaign of "Compassionate Care for others at Christmas".
The staff mainly visited sanitation workers, elderly people in nursing homes, and some believers.
On the morning of December 16, the staff of the church sent 160 packets of rice to all the sanitation workers at the Liurong Sanitation Station in Yuexiu District, Guangzhou.
Two days later, they presented 100 pairs of woolen socks donated by a sister and 38 thermos vacuum cups prepared by the church, to Ci’en Nursing Home in Huadu District. They wished them a happy life during their old age and take good care of themselves.
On the morning of December 20th, they also shared their care and concern to 27 believers from the church.
The expenses of the activities were from the collections they received in the thanksgiving service in November. The believers in the church made a special contribution to charity activities.

圣诞是庆祝耶稣基督的降生。祂的到来给黑暗中的人带去了光明,正是这光驱散了一切黑暗,给痛苦彷徨的人带来了希望。正值圣诞月,我们不仅是以感恩纪念耶稣的降生,更是要将这大好的消息传递出去,践行基督之爱。
2020年12月16-20日,广州光孝堂在这几天中举办了“慈惠关怀,圣诞慰问”的活动,此次活动主要慰问了环卫工人、敬老院和一些弟兄姐妹。
12月16日上午,光孝堂为越秀区六榕环卫站的所有环卫工作人员送去圣诞慰问祝福,该活动共送出大米160包,并祝福他们平安健康。
12月18日上午,光孝堂带着许姐妹爱心奉献的100双羊毛袜子和教会准备的38个保温杯来到了花都慈恩老人院进行圣诞慰问,希望他们能很好地照顾自己,并祝福他们在基督里日子如何,力量也如何!
