Monday 31 January 2011: Don Bosco Day - DBYC

Tonight was the culmination of the 'I Touch' event. The new children were gathered for the 6pm mass. The church was packed and Fr. Andy spoke about the Salesian Family, both in Pasil and around the world. There was a special Our Father as all children held hands to sing the prayer. After the mass there was another parade around the streets of Pasil and Suba with the rosary being said.

Once back in the center all the children, around 300, were given a rice broth with chicken, onions and ginger and juice. After the feeding there was a variety programme. It included many different games along with performances for example from the KOA (Knights of the Altar) and the Children's Choir.

It was a great evening and hopefully some of the new children will become permanent members of the DBYC so the message of Don Bosco can be spread to many more.
