Christmas Sucked, no heat, prayer answer = NO

OK - Christmas was the worst ever... no joke. Salvation Army and other charities told me I applied too late, churches told me I had to join to receive any help, other organizations were out of money to assist with.

I hav enever had a Christmas where I had nothing to give except something homemade. Sounds cute and "movie of the week" precious perhaps? NOT HARDLY. I am embarassed that every where I turned for help even to Christian organizations, I was told no.

at least its over and I have to focus on getting heat help. LiHeap will help a little when I get thepapers filed, but there are more bills than LiHeap can help with.

I was praying for an angel of mercy with a gift of funds.... I guess the answer to my prayer was NO

I am a single mother with an daughter who turns 3 in March. I am in desperate need for help to get her something for Christmas. I thought I'd be able to get her something but we've been staying in a motel trying to find an apartment and i just barely was able to pay for the hotel room for this week. The hotel manager was nice enough to let me pay him $75 less then what it would be for a week. If there is anyone out there that could help me find a cheap enough place to rent and to get my baby girl atleast one present for Christmas please give me a call at 4435808198. Thank you very much!!! And God bless everyone out there that's helping people like me and Merry Christmas.

I need to make a Christmas Miracle happen?

Hey everyone I just want to start off saying 17 so this is why I don't have a job I had a summer job but it was just temporary and to help me get clothes for school. My mom every year struggles to get everyone a present, shes a realtor so of course you can see why she isn't making as much money as she should cus the market changes everyday. Well straight to the point every year she doesn't have enough money for gifts just for food, and paying the bills which I am more than grateful for but when i was the age of my younger sister and brother I would receive so many gifts from her and to see them not even get a single gift me and my mom cry every year and I try to cheer her up. Now i'm not saying how can i get money quick three days before christmas but is there anything you can think of that i can do to take their minds off of gifts like fun games to play, or watch movies. My mom has four kids I'm the second oldest, and now her brother who has 3 kids is living with us after the kids were abused by his new wife, along with her boyfriend and her aunt so you can only imagine how many of them are going to be disappointed christmas morning.... I just want everyone to have a smile on their face.

Family in need of clothes for their kids and other household things

I am homeless and I live with a family of a gal I went to High school with and they are low income and struggling with their own problems and they can't afford to buy their kids any gifts and they are relying on other people they know to get them what they want. I live in Phoenix, AZ and I am very grateful for this family and I want to help them out by getting their kids what they need, like clothes, shoes, but mostly winter coats. They have a son in college who's 20 years old and works P/T and needs new eye glass prescription, Then their second oldest, she's 18 year old that is focused on graduating, a 16 year old son who wants a video game system with games, but has only asked for clothes because it's what he needs. The youngest is 10 she's in need of clothes as well, but like any child, would prefer clothes over getting socks.

The household needs Cups/Glasses, Plates, Bowls, and forks and food. They can't seem to keep enough food in the house because the neighborhood kids come over and eat their food and they don't want to be rude and say, sorry you can't eat here. The kids that come over the most are fatty's that should go home and eat, but they don't. Sorry to be rude, but these people go hungry so that others can eat...

Please email me if you can help this family THANK YOU!

hello, I am a mother of a child who is 5 and soon of a baby boy whos on the way. Since the month of Dec started i have been feeling stresed out beause i finish school and because of chritmas. This year has become one of the sadest becasue economically i hvae not been doing good. I have no christmas tree nor any gifts because the only one working is my husband who makes very little income. I am so sad becasue my daughter is not going to receive any gifts this year from us. I dont even think my child who is also going to be born this month is going to have everything that is necessary. I feel so sad my husband struggles day by day to at least give us something to eat. I am praying my virgen marry to help me at least to give her anything little but significant to her. I would be glad only to have a smile in her face and glad to have my child in my arms he would be our best present. Is just so sad that for the first time in my life i feel this is no christmas at all and it makes me really depress see everybody smiling while shopping for there kids presents when i know i cant do the same . Please i need a miracle.

Please help us for Christmas

I am a single mom who is disabled and I barely have enough to pay my bills every month. My son is 19 , and his birthday was yesterday the 22nd. We have no money for Christmas or even food right now. I get food stamps and we have run out of food as we always do around this time of the month. I have 45 dollars in my purse and am short 200 for January rent. My wallet was stolen last month and I had 200 dollars in it. My son has been walking everywhere applying for a job, but has not had a call back. I struggle with gas money. If anyone has a heart and can just give my child something for Christmas I would be so grateful! It is a horrible feeling when you have to watch your only child sad and feel unimportant this time of year when everyone else is getting presents. My son has stepped up this past year and sold his x-box and I sold my laptop just to pay bills. Please someone help us. Teresa 504-327-0879!

I know it's late DEC 23, 2011 - Friend in need of gifts for their kids

My friend recently took me into her house. I was living in a homeless shelter and my time came up to vacate. I'm in the Phoenix, Arizona area. Her and her husband are low income and have three kids living with them and they are practically living in poverty. They don't have many dishes or forks, but lots of spoons and two bowls and three plates. The two girls don't have many clothes and they only have one pay of shoes each. Their son is in need of clothes as well like button up/collared shirts, slacks, jeans, dickie type material or cargo's. They have contacted numerous places to get help for their kids. The youngest is ten and they know they are only getting one present each which is sad because most of their needs is what they need and not what they really want like video games and toys, stuff that kids should enjoy.

A prayer and a plea for chritmas help

We need a Christmas miracle! Two days before Christmas and we have no presents for our children. We have a 10 yr old son and an 8 yr old daughter. We have focused so hard on keeping our home from going into foreclosure, that we haven't been able to buy a single gift. And all for nothing because we were served with forclosure papers this week afterall. I've explained the situation to the children and they both say they understand and everything will be okay. They are such good kids, they deserve at least a little something for Christmas. If you are able to help I would be so thankful to you for brightening my babies holiday. Please contact me at cblack28@insightbb.com I am at my neighbors using Internet so will check messages often. God, please hear my prayers for a nice Christmas for my kids. In Jesus name I pray Amen. God bless you all!
