Every Saturday afternoon, about 275 children from the leper end of Saburai attend catechesis and English classes, during which the brothers cook food for them with snacks. All of these children are very poor and struggle to be fed daily. On the Saturday that we were there, they also each received a gift of an exercise book and a pen for their schooling.
We will catch up at the next post
Till then
Blessings to all
