Our own radio station broadcast a lot of advertising
No one knows exactly how many children’s festivals have been celebrated in Diospi Suyana’s Amphitheatre, but one thing we do know for certain: yesterday we set a new record number of children attending the party. In the past few days our own radio station had done a lot of advertising.
Despite the rainy season Curahuasi enjoyed ideal weather conditions and even gave us a breath-taking view of the snow-covered mountains. 24 volunteers from the Misión Iglesia Bíblica Carismática organised the programme entitled: “We celebrate our Creator!”
Music and sketches alternated, but were joined together by the programme’s central theme: thank God, our Creator. Our TV-team ensured a live-broadcasting on Facebook.
It goes without saying that at the end of the event the children were given a going-home-Christmas-bag. We had estimated that 1,000 children would come; 1,300 presents were handed out, but still not everyone got one. 2,000 people (grown-ups included) sat in the Amphitheatre.
We cordially thank Gladys Illescas de Hurtado, who organises our 12 children clubs, and our volunteers from Lima and Curahuasi for this wonderful afternoon. Misión Iglesia Bíblica Carismática has supported Diospi Suyana’s work for two years now, for example by paying the salary for one of our doctors.
