CHILDREN CELEBRATE ST NICHOLAS.
Yesterday, during the children's prayer time, Julian told the story of St Nicolas, how he was a very unhappy rich man. St Nicolas noticed other rich people who were becoming happy by giving away their riches.
After the children's excitement that they were going to receive oranges and biscuits in their shoes, Ester reminded them that later in this season of Advent, they too were going to have an opportunity to visit poor people in the village. I felt humbled by seeing these children being asked to give away some of the little they have.
I have had some friends asking me how they can help the children here. Although the home and surroundings are beautiful, I am seeing that help is needed for daily expenses, which is why the shopping list idea might encourage even children to see that a little "regular" help can go a long way.
