The 2023 Secret Santa Special: Part 2

[@JP-nj5es]

When Nate shows up you know you’re a good person

[@brandonb5240]

I’m a 6’8 almost 40 year old man with a beard and I hate Nate because he’s one of the only things that makes me cry. I love secret Santa so much. You give away millions, but are one in a billion. Doing it the way you do it is so important. The spirit of your cause is so damn encouraging. Thank you for infecting us all with your love. Thanks Nate for being a caring concierge.

[@olgamountain9904]

Hi, Brandon, honey. Your comment was lovely, but my favorite thing was you using the word “ concierge “.

[@HoneyMontana406]

Big guy You made me cry.

[@3x3mm]

ikr Happy Holidays!

[@kimnichols129]

Is it just me, or do so many seem barely grateful? Not all but most of the visibly grateful people are from other countries. Que peña.

[@brandonb5240]

@ I don’t think the point is that everyone being gifted feels emotional. I believe the point is to show us that we don’t have to have a huge cause we are supporting. There is need everywhere, and if we only direct our efforts more precisely, and as a community, each day we can improve each other’s lives. Love you

[@donnasnorthernlights2089]

There’s a special place in heaven for Secret Santa.❤

[@bungalowmo]

So many of these were so great, but one beats them all. When Phenon (sp) got the car & Nate told her that he could call her boss to explain why she had to clock out & she says...."I might just have you do that"! She was in total shock. One recurring theme throughout so many of these, over and over, these wonderful folks say "I don't deserve this", or their first thoughts are to thank God, or help others if they received money. Such wonderful, humble, deserving people. We aren't all able to help folks in the way that the Secret Santa does, but we can all just do what we can, when we can, to make the lives of someone in our community better.

[@SomeOne-zw6kh]

That's very true. I see a lot of people say "i wish I could help people like secret santa." Everyone has the ability to help. Even if it can't be a million dollars worth, there's so much people can give and it feels good to do it.

[@a.marcoux4274]

@@SomeOne-zw6kh Someone wrote that you could perform free acts of kindness like bringing in trash cans, clearing snow from driveways, having a community card game, etc. It can be free and you can do something now! EIN hears about this all the time!

[@pkwithmeplease]

but its not god.

[@M-Series-guy]

Nate, you were put on this planet to do this. I think you are the perfect ambassador for Secret Santa. Whoever you are,Secret Santa, there is a special place for you in heaven !!!

[@slipshankd1307]

Tell Secret Santa he makes us happy also, and we don't need a gift. Just to see the people he helps is enough.

[@mortalclown3812]

❤😊💯🙏

[@Kaasstokje]

So true!👌🏻

[@wendyk6875]

Well said. I always get angry when I see people on some of these sites that are like, well I don't have any money why aren't they knocking on my door? It drives me nuts. You never get anywhere being greedy. And this man that gives so freely is an amazing human being and I wish that I would be able to do that. But there's so many other things we can do without money to show people that we care. Even a friendly gesture of holding the door or smiling and telling somebody how you like their outfit or just something nice. I make sure that at least once a day I do something positive. My daughter was always the kindest and sweetest person so I guess I do that to try to keep her alive in my mind. She would have loved to do this for people oh my God

[@jfoote00]

I don’t even live in Idaho I live in California and I’ve been watching these videos and I am overwhelmed by the compassion and love that is represented by the secret Santa. I have been very concerned about the apparent absence of compassion in our contemporary society. The acts of compassion represented by these individuals who are the secret Santa’s are providing so much needed support support to these people that it proves to me that compassion still exists and is thriving . The most important thing in life is love, not money, not material possessions, but love. From the generosity and selfless love of those who have much to provide to those who have so little anonymously warms my heart so much and makes me cry every time I watch these videos. Thank you for providing this service to your community. I hope you continue to do so for many years to come. In my life, I have experienced being very poor and trying to raise children. I remember one time my wife and I had enough food to feed the four toddlers, we had, but not ourselves. My oldest daughter asked if we were going to eat and we told her we had already eaten and we were starving. When you get to that point that things are so bleak that life is really taking a toll, the compassion and generosity of others helps to prove to you that all is not lost.

[@YourRoyalMajesty.]

This is the best binge I’ve ever been on! Happy Holidays my human family! I love you all! 💖🕯

[@YolieZeller-vi3jx]

Nate is probably the best presenter you could have

[@mildredmorine745]

Every time I watch secret Santa he makes me cry tears of joy, happiness. I love you secret Santa, sending you a warm hug, love.

[@nomad57-u3x]

i have been without heat for 20+ years and still cant get my social security...i only have a holmes milkhouse can space heater to heat one room during the winter....as she says God has supernaturally kept my house warm all these years...

May the lord bless you with heat I hope and pray someone that has the money can help you and bless you 😢 I wish I had money to help everyone I could

[@codymiller9086]

I'm canadian and I haven't turned the heat on in my house purposefully for 6 to 7 years. Lol I have electric heat and old wiring I'm not about to pay that and last week it was -22° Celsius. I do have a fire place but I'm just saying. It's easy to deal with the cold as long as you're out of the wind. Lol😂

[@ffcfesta]

I'm in the UK and follow East Idaho news, how strange is that! I love these Secret Santa things you do, so emotional. Fantastic to see the happiness / relief it brings

[@tedmounsteven621]

I'm in Canada, and I follow East Idaho news for the same reason. God put us on earth to help other people. Whenever I see the reactions of the recipients, I alsways think how much *pleasure* it must bring to Secret Santa.

[@nancysnead5132]

THESE SECRET SANTAS REALLY RESTORES OUR FAITH IN GOD & THAT GOD DOES HEAR OUR CRIES FOR HELP

[@a.marcoux4274]

It is proof God hears us. It was perfect timing. A lot of these people can’t get to work without a car.❤

Idk 🤷‍♀️ how many years since Secret Santa 🎅 started but i really look forward to it every year. It’s my annual therapy 😭 😭 😭 God Bless

I don't get over that Nate can hold up his tears. I am 40 years old and i find myself in tears everytime

Hello, I'm from the Netherlands and enjoy this video's for a long time. You are the perfect person for this job, Nate, you are so empathic to the persons you go to. Realy superb!! Keep up this good work, please, I hope Secret Santa can afford more years to surprise more people!! Love you all, Betty.

[@jimm4533]

These are all emotional, but @2:09:00 was the most heart-wrenching yet. A huge Aloha from Hawaii to both families. Nate and your team, thank you so much, and thank you, Secret Santa.

[@GideonOpoku-vj3vn]

Hello Secret Santa, I don't know who you are, but I pray the Good Lord would continue to bless you to help put smiles on people's face every year. I adore you,Secret 🎅 Cheers

[@mashaazran9896]

It takes a real man to show you care and say you love someone. Thanks a lot. You made my day! It figures it comes from an articulate and empathetic African.

[@jeffj2495]

You guys are THE VERY BEST. Thank you Secret Santa. Nate - I don't know how you keep a dry eye through all this amazing gift giving. Thank you so very much.

[@erinmyers8603]

Has an update video been made? I love to see how each family is doing after being blessed by Secret Santa. ❤

[@suehofkamp8594]

The first one made me cry like a baby. You could see her burdens lifting off her shoulders. Thank you Secret Santa for giving so many such a wonderful Christmas with loving gifts from your heart.

[@DionSt.Michael]

Ms Karen. Her segment crushed me too. Her reaction was so heartfelt and genuine. Such a sweet ,lovely, deserving lady ❤

[@tedmounsteven621]

The thing that strikes me, again and again, is that so many recipients of Secret Santa's bounty say how much *others* need the help more. It shows how basically kind and decent they are themselves. If they had the wherewithall they'd all be Secret Santas themselves: They all seem that decent!

[@RhondaDedman-j2b]

How are all these people not crying as hard as I am for them all. God Bless secret santa and the families. ❤

[@DionSt.Michael]

I got to hand it to you and your team Nate. It’s one thing to spread happiness, cheer and the much needed support both your station and Secret Santa is responsible for but it must also be just as challenging as it is rewarding seeing/hearing some of the struggles and hardships some of the wonderful members of your own community face/endure some days as well. It can’t always be easy. A lot of good and decent folks really hurting. Just wanted to wish you, East Idaho News and Secret Santa the warmest of holidays this year and thank you for being such an amazing advocate for your community, your employer and Secret Santa as well! God bless all you guys ❤❤❤

Scarleth at about 2:40:00 moved me a lot. There are so many good people moving here from other countries - emphasizing good, too. 'E pluribus unum' used to mean so much. Praying it can again. For all her flaws, America had a light once. This segment - and the others - reminds me of that.

[@mashaazran9896]

She probably isn’t used to receiving gifts and is beaten down by life in general. I feel deeply for her. Her life is about suffering and sacrifice. She’s so young for someone who been through so much. Sending prayers asking God to help her family financially.
