Gold...Frankincense....Clean Water?

Christmas...it's that time of the year again....planning, giving, sharing....and we're reminded of the popular Christmas song:

Christmas...isn't Christmas...
till it happens...in your heart...
somewhere... deep inside you...
is where Christmas really starts...

so, give your... heart to people...you'll discover when you do...that it's Christmas....really Christmas....for you!

As Christmas is no longer celebrated by Christians only, some of us have forgotten the true meaning of Christmas. In welcoming the season, Pope Benedict XVI reminds us:

“We could say that Advent is the time when Christians should awaken in their hearts the hope that they can change the world, with the help of God.”

We @ H C T V believe that: "Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world at once, but of stretching out to mend the part of the world that is within our reach" - Clarissa Pinkola Estes

As we get into the mood of singing Christmas carols, we would like to share with you a little something we put together, to reflect our Christmas wish. It can be sung to the tune of O Come Divine Messiah, a traditional Christmas carol:

Oh Come Clean Water Supply
(sung to the tune of O Come Divine Messiah)

Oh come clean water supply
Our world in silence waits this need
And we will live in triumph
When sickness flees away

Clean water supply
Come, come to us now
Dispel your greed & meet our needs
And greet the King
With words & deeds
Oh come clean water supply
Our world in silence waits this need
And we will live in triumph
When sickness flees away

You eat & just get fatter
But now its time for real answers
Will you be inns or mangers
When baby Jesus appears
You know the needs,
But what will you heed
Trees, shopping, parties, wine, fruit cakes
Or pipes and joints to ease our pain?
Oh come clean water supply
Our world in silence waits this need
And we will live in triumph
When sickness flees away


We @ H C T V would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your prayers & support over this past year. We wish you a meaningful Christmas - a Christmas with a difference...because YOU can make a difference:

Don't turn your back..Lend a hand...Do something..and Touch a life!
