On the last week of the Christmas season, four missionary brothers of the Heralds of the Gospel took a statue of the Child Jesus to irradiate joy amongst the residents of the Care Home, “O Polverello”.
The Child Jesus with the Residents and Staff
The visit took place in the afternoon. With Frair Marcio, OFM, the Heralds of the Gospel went in the rooms of the residents to give them an opportunity to touch on the Child Jesus. As well, to have a moment of intimacy and prayer with our sweet Savior.
The staff of the care home also had the surprise and joy of encountering the Child Jesus.
Holy Mass at the Care Home
After the visits, a Holy Mass was celebrated with the residents and staff. At the end of which all received a special blessing of the Child Jesus.
