CHARITY VISIT 2011-08-19 16:03:07 Our charity visit to St.Theresas orphanage was on th 6th of August 2011.Around 56 of us accompanied by our class teachers started by 10 : 45 am by our school bus.The bus journey was for about an hour.We sang hymns and other songs and entertained ourselves.Although many had travel sickness,the journey was good. We reached there around 12 o’clock.The brother there welcomed us with a greeting smile and we went into a room were 35 pairs of enthusiastic eyes were fixed on us.It was the boys in the Home ranging from grade I-grade XI.We had taken food for them along with provisions and other essential items.As we sat in the hall the brother-in charge spoke to us about the Home and then all the boys came up to introduce themselves.They sang songs for us with a lot of enthusiasm and we sang that we knew.We spent a very happy time with them.We learned a lot from this charity visit.We learned the importance of giving the blessings we get when we give with happiness.We also realized how blessed we are.We learned that we should always thank god for what we have and help others with what we have.Charity blesses the giver and the receiver.With his happiness we returned around 2 : 30 pm and got back to our routine with memories of this beautiful day.Thanks to Miss Rodricks and Miss.Jeba for accompanying us.
