A Mongolian Christmas
(We resume austraLasia items after a break over the Christmas-New Year period)

Ulaanbatar-Amagalan: 31st December 2008 -- The Amagalan Dominic Savio community, on the outskirts of Ulaanbataar, Mongolia, has celebrated the Christmas season with its immediate neighbours, the poor. There are three Salesians in the community and Fr Paul Leung is the Rector.  As Bro Arnold, one of the community members writes: "Salesian volunteers, staff and our children organised a Christmas service for the poor, our neighbours. Around 150 came to the Centre".
    The Christmas program began with a mini-concert and performance by youngsters from the Centre, consisting of drama, songs, poetry and music. The staff too, performed.  All this was followed by games for the youngsters which took them through to lunch time, after which precious gifts of oil, rice, flour, sugar and some clothes were distributed. Families also received books and writing materials.
    The families gave thanks, represented by one of  them who spoke of her life alone with her children, always finding it difficult to provide. She was so grateful for the gifts and the moments of celebration.
