:感恩节故事
It was the secretary from our former church, and she told me that they had been thinking about us and had something to give us from the congregation. I told her that I was going out to pick up some more juice and soup for the children, and I would drop by the church on my way to the market. 电话是我们以前教堂里的秘书打来的,她说他们一直在惦记着我们,教友們还有一些東西要送给我们.我告诉她我正要出去给孩子们买些喝的东西,在我去市场的途中会顺便到教堂去一下.
I arrived at the church just before lunch. The church secretary met me at the door and handed me a special gift envelope. "We think of you and the kids often," she said, "and you are in our hearts and prayers. We love you." When I opened the envelope, I found two grocery certificates inside. Each was worth $20. I was so touched and moved, I broke down and cried.
我赶到教堂时正好要到午饭时间了。在门口我遇到了教堂的秘书她递给我一个别致的礼品信封."我们经常想起你和孩子们,"她说,"并且在心中为你们祈祷.我们爱你们."我打开信封,看到里面有两张面值是20美元的食品店购物券.我被深深的感动了,不禁失声痛哭.
"Thank you very much," I said, as we hugged each other. "Please give our love and thanks to the church." Then I drove to a store near our home and purchased some much-needed items for the children.
