Setting is a Unitarian Universalist Sunday school classroom. The teacher is Ms. Dennis. One day Ms. Dennis tells them they are going to sing a song in the Winter concert, so they need to choose a song. Taylor suggests "the Little Drummer Boy" Alex does not like this idea because Alex is Jewish. Alex suggests singing "Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel". But Avery, who is not religious does not want to sing a song about Hannukah. River suggests they sing "Rudolf the red nosed reindeer". the children are excited except Mako. Mako says she does not know that song because she does not celebrate Christmas. The other children ask Mako to just sit out. Ms. Dennis tells them no, they are not going to exclude someone. Ms. Dennis tells the children find something they have in common, and asks them to bring an item that symbolizes the holidays they celebrate. When the children return, Avery brought a red, a blue, and a gold candle Avery's family celebrates Human Light, the candles represent, reason, compassion & hope. Jordan brings a Kinara his family celebrates Kwanzaa they light the candles to symbolize their community. Taylor brings a star from his Christmas tree. He explains that he celebrates Christmas and that the star is a reminder of the North Star the wise men followed to find Jesus. Mako brings a Bodi tree with lights. Mako's her family celebrates Bodi day, the day when the Buddha achieved enlightenment the lights on the tree represent the path to enlightenment. Alex brings a Menorah, Alex's family celebrates Hannukah, and the candles symbolize light's triumph over dark. River brings in a crown made of holly candles sticking out of it. her family celebrates Winter Solstice & the return of the sun. Ms. Dennis says all their celebrations revolve around light and the symbol of the Unitarian Universalist Church is a flaming chalice, each of the children have a light inside of them.

It was a very special day—Rithwika’s 4th birthday! She woke up with a big smile, her eyes sparkling with excitement. Today was going to be a magical day filled with surprises! Murali and Sachu, her loving parents, had decorated the house beautifully with lots of cute kitten decorations because Rithwika absolutely loved kittens! Just then, the doorbell rang. Rithwika ran to open the door, and standing there was her best friend. Happy Birthday, Rithwika!” her friend said, hugging her. “Yay! You came!” Rithwika cheered, pulling her inside excitedly. But there was one thing Rithwika wished for the most. “I wish Grandma Smitha was here too,” she said with a little sigh. Grandma Smitha lived far away in India, and Rithwika missed her so much. Just then, another DING DONG! This time, it was a big box wrapped in a pink ribbon! It had a note that said: "For My Sweet Kitten Rithwika, with love, Grandma Smitha." Excited, she quickly opened the box. Inside was a soft, fluffy toy kitten with bright blue eyes and a tiny pink nose. “Meow!” It made a little sound when she hugged it. “Oh wow! It’s so cute! Thank you, Grandma!” Rithwika squealed with joy. Her parents turned on the laptop, and Grandma Smitha appeared on the screen, smiling warmly. “Happy Birthday, my dear Rithwika!” she said. “Do you like your gift?” “I love it, Grandma! I will name her Meow-Meow!” Rithwika giggled, cuddling the toy. Her friend clapped and said, “Meow-Meow is so cute! Soon, it was time for the birthday cake. It was the most beautiful cake Rithwika had ever seen—covered in tiny, playful kittens made of frosting! She clapped her hands happily and blew out the candles while everyone cheered. After cake and presents, Rithwika and her friend played with Meow-Meow. Even though Grandma Smitha was far away, she felt close to Rithwika through their video call. As the day ended, Rithwika hugged her kitten toy tightly and whispered, “This was the best birthday ever!” And with a happy heart, she fell asleep.

Amy Carmichael aprendeu uma importante lição sobre a proteção de Deus quando caiu em um buraco, fraturou a perna e precisou esperar por socorro por cinco horas. Durante o transporte ao hospital em condições perigosas, a caminhonete quase afundou em um buraco profundo, mas Deus os protegeu. Embora ela sofresse muita dor e não pudesse mais trabalhar ativamente no resgate de crianças, Amy aceitou que Deus ainda tinha planos para ela. Sua incapacidade de andar sem dor a obrigou a ficar no quarto, mas, ao invés de desanimar, ela usou esse tempo para escrever. A partir de seu quarto, Amy escreveu sobre sua experiência na Índia, a proteção e fidelidade de Deus, e o sofrimento que a aproximou ainda mais de Deus. Seus textos alcançaram cristãos ao redor do mundo, denunciando práticas como a venda de crianças aos templos, o que resultou em mudanças nas leis indianas. Seus escritos também inspiraram muitas pessoas a se tornarem missionários. Amy morreu em 1951, mas sua história continua impactando vidas. Ela dedicou sua vida a Deus, desafiando outros a fazerem o mesmo, seja em missões distantes ou no dia a dia. Amy acreditava que qualquer um, independente da idade, pode servir a Deus e compartilhar o amor de Jesus. Hoje, sua vida é um exemplo de dedicação e fé, inspirando outros a seguir seu caminho de serviço e entrega total a Deus.
