2010 will not be a year quickly forgotten in the Biggs household for some heart breaking reasons but mostly for the amazing times we shared as a family in so many different places with different people. We started the year with the Germain family up in a small tribal village called Kihan, we were inspired by their love and commitment and touched by their friendship and passion. Their heart for the 
people they lived with was refreshing and their sacrifices both in Kihan and in leaving will never be truly understood by anyone. Our family grew solidly attached to this unique and wonderful family and we were privileged once again to see them in Alaska (or Alastika as Jasmine likes to call it).

So many people opening their homes to us and our family, so many friends loving us just because we live and so many hugs that made the painful parts of the year fade far away.
This December will be the first Christmas we have been alone as a family of five and there is a sense of excitement and anticipation of what we will discover, what memories we will create and how we will grow as a family through this. Part of the Christmas season here at Global Impact are the annual Christmas 
outreaches. This year we are doing such a broad range it is never boring. We perform in tribal, school, church and community events. Ethan is dancing and in the drama for this year's performance and I am dancing also (hey stop laughing...no there will be not be videos released).

Big groups are fun and now the opportunity to touch individual family groups is going to be a blast. We get to help create memories for them by touching them in the midst of their circumstances with a tangible expression of God's love. There is no set recipe for the pack unlike the over 200 hygiene packs we have already made. Each pack is designed for a specific family including: groceries, clothing, medical supplies, vitamins and some just plain fun stuff.

ach year people help us give hygiene packs with soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, wash cloth etc. to hundreds of kids, youth and adults. So this year we decided to go one step further. We have selected three of the families already and as we have the provisions we will add more families. Our goal this year is 12 families and if you would like to help just let me know.
