On 2nd November we the Sisters from Dakor Pushpanjali celebrated the feast of Diwali with our boarding children. We began the celebration at 6.30 pm. The boarders welcomed each Sister with a lamp which symbolizes light. Diwali is a feast of victory over evil. Children were dressed in the attire of Ram and Sita and they explained the importance of celebrating Diwali. The children animated the prayer service and this was followed by a cultural programme. Sr. Hilda gave a message let us spread the light with our good deeds as you go home and spent time with your family. In the end, the Sisters and the children danced and together enjoyed a sumptuous meal.
