"Can we do something as a community for the victims of the tsunami", was the request of our young seminarians at Dehon Bhavan, in Kerala.
After visiting the parish priest in Chellanam South, where many children found themselves pulled into the water on December 26, 2004, the decision was made to plan a “children’s day” in that area.
Our students prepared food for 500 people, while others prepared a cultural program. On January 29th, the whole community went to Chellanam South to be with the children who welcomed us very enthusiastically. The culture program and the time playing games later created a very warm atmosphere. Everyone had a smile on their face.
The distribution of the food was well organized and peaceful and everybody came away satisfied.
It was a wonderful day.
