It is the joyous
moment when we await the coming of the Saviour of the world, our
Lord Jesus Christ. Yes, the season of cheer and joy is here-
Christmas. With excitement in their hearts, our little sponsored
children at Vimukti eagerly await to experience the joy of
Christmas. The celebration was held in our vimukti auditorium. The
entire auditorium was beautifully decorated with flowers, festivals,
lights, posters, and models. All the sponsored children and staff
members were very excited and full of enthusiasm for the
celebration.
Fr. Director Sathish Fernandes wished everyone a very happy
Christmas and also gave a short motivational speech and asked the
young children their understanding of Christmas; however, the real
Christmas lies in the birth of Jesus who came to teach us love,
harmony, unity and forgiveness. Over 57 sponsored children were
extremely delighted to receive special Christmas Gifts from Donor
agency, Ensemble Agissons, France. Each family has received Solar
lights as per their choice, which is very useful to their family
during electric failure. These solar lights are rechargeable in
ordinary sunlight, and this will provide continuous light at least
4-6 hours daily, very handy, and very useful to children in their
studies giving them a high chance of being good citizens in the
future. This will enable the family members to continue doing their
household activities without difficulties. These Christmas gifts
brought smiles on the faces of the sponsored families. Dignitaries
on the dais conveyed their appreciation to the donors and to the
staff for the timely help. Mr. Argyappa presented the Vote of
Thanks, and nearly 91 participants benefited from this program.
