Celebrating Christmas

This year, the feast of Christmas was marked by a solemn celebration in the church, in which our children received a plastic bag with assorted biscuits. After that, we went to visit one of our members in hospital, a liberian called Moises, who, yesterday, got his legs burnt by gasoline. We prayed for him and gave him a little sum of money collected during the mass.


He was very surprised and grateful for our gift, which he did not expected. We took the chance to visit other patients in the same ward, some of whom we recognized as our neighbors or relatives.We were horrified to discover that the hospital  in which Moises is being treated (Hospital militar principal) is brand new but ... without electricity.
