It was a great occasion and lots of hard work was done by the
junior coordinator Rajie Muthukumar for the Christmas Party on 27th
December at Hammersmith. When I entered the church, I felt our children are really
God’s gift to our own families and our Church family. Rajie Muthukumar introduced
that evening and helped each one of us to hear the cry of the baby Jesus while
we sang the carols together. After that, a little reflection encouraged the
participants to reflect on different names prophesised by prophet Isaiah about
the son of God. Children were asked to remember the verse 6 from the chapter 9 and
they were encouraged to memorise. The children’s performance exhibited their
music and singing talents which came out fantastically. Robin and Kalyani Appadurai
conducted games and facilitated the participants to get involved in. Games such as throw ball, passing the ball
while music was played, and finally Bingo generated team spirit and
encouragement of one another. We enjoyed eating together too. The coming of
Santa Claus and his distributing gifts to all of us added to the fun. There
were 12 children, 2 youngsters and 24 adults attending this celebration.
Different families brought their families and friends to celebrate the Christmas
Party with us. Children had a good dance
with Santa that showed they enjoyed his visit. At the end the children reminded themselves
about the names of the Son of God mentioned in the book of Isaiah with more
excitement. Rev. Asir Anand offered the final prayer.
It was a good
celebration enjoyed by all of us, adults and little ones!.
