Christmas, a time of joy in Nandri
Christmas is a special time for many people throughout the world and for our Nandri families too. It is a time to share our love with each other. As part of our Christmas festivities, Nandri is organizing a multi denominational celebration representing the many religions of our mothers, to share the joy of Christmas with all. Through our service we will impart the importance of love and harmony amongst people of all beliefs.
At Christmas time we share joy of giving with our disadvantaged mothers and their children. This year we gave each mother the gift of a Nandri oil lamp and a card saying “I am a Nandri mother”. Being part of the Nandri family is a great source of pride for all our mothers. The oil Lamp is a symbol of hope - that in 2021 there will be light at the end of the tunnel after our families have endured extremely challenging times in the past year. We hope that 2021 will be a healthy, happy and more prosperous year for all our families. As the new year dawns, each mother will light their Nandri lamp to signify light and hope in 2021.
The lamps will continue to be an important part of Nandri throughout the year. At each of our monthly meetings, one mother will be chosen to light the lamp and preside over the meeting, reminding our mothers that Nandri will continue to help and support them and keep the light of hope burning in all their hearts.
