Christmas in Ethiopia
Christmas… This year, we organized the celebration on Christmas Eve (January 6) in the hall belonging to the Church. We invited 110 children we support and their parents. To our surprise, only a few did not come. It was very fun – there were songs, nativity plays, games, competitions, refreshments. My husband, Tesfa, who led our ceremony, had his birthday that day, so everyone sang “Happy Birthday” to him and tasted birthday cake. And when Christmas gifts were brought on stage, everyone started clapping and screaming with joy that we couldn’t calm them down for 10 minutes.
Thank you very much for your support. You have brought joy to so many children and their parents. I can honestly say that without your help, this beautiful ceremony would not have taken place.
