                                      The Three Gifts                       A beautiful Christmas story about three                       young men who are convicted of mugging                       little children for their Halloween candy.                       Instead of sentencing them to jail, as is                       expected, the judge sentences them to 100                       hours of community service babysitting at     the Women's Crisis Center.          They were prepared for jail, but they were not prepared     for what was in store for them as the children opened their     eyes and hearts and changed their lives.                                   The Mail-Order Bride                              It was to be the big day for Eli. His                        fiancé, Molly, was coming in on a ship. Two                        years earlier, unable to find work in                        England, he had headed for America. His                        ship was caught in a storm, and he ended                        up, not in Pennsylvania as he planned, but                        in Newfoundland.          But that was all behind him now. He had written to     Molly every day for the two years, and now she was     coming so they could be married.          But Eli was in for a surprise. Unknown to him, Molly     had married. She had bought him a mail-order bride, and     Eli's life was going to suddenly take an unexpected twist.                                       66
