Tomorrow - Monday, November
20th - is International Children’s Day!
Pwoje Espwa celebrated this
special day today during and after Mass. In a church adorned with homemade decorations
made by two of Espwa’s young women, Father Gregoire preached about the rights that
children have. Espwa children offered up ideas about their rights – the right to eat well, the right to education, the right to have a voice in the world. Father Gregoire reminded the children that with their rights come responsibilities.
After Mass, a celebration
team came together to put on different activities for the kids. They played
music, enjoyed mini competitions, and watched performances of talented Espwa
children. The celebration ended with yummy treats!

who are less fortunate. Happy International Children’s Day 2017!
