Sara has experienced this and so has her mom.Today, Sara shares these stories with you. First, she talks about her mother's experience in Cuba. A devout Catholic, her mom watched the Cuban revolution unfold and how Castro and his Marxist allies did everything they could to crush Christianity. Then Sara tells us about living in Saudi Arabia while her father worked there and the shocking moment the Saudi government found out about a Christmas celebration she was part of as a child.Wherever you are this holiday season, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a joyous celebration of Christ's birth.Thanks for being a part of the Sara Carter Show.Please visit our great sponsors:HelloFreshhttps://hellofresh.com/saracarterfreeUse code SARACARTERFREE for Free breakfast for life!
