What Angels Do!

Breaking the sound of silence, a whisper of hope is born. An Angel treads softly seeking the lost and the forlorn. A sign here, a signal there and from across the miles, Loving, Caring people gather to reach out and bring about a smile

A Christmas Starter at the Infant Jesus Boys Home, Guntur

The 5th of December dawned bright and sunny and Whispering Hope got ready for the first of its Christmas programs.  There are 45 boys at the Infant Jesus Boys Home in Guntur and an evening of fun, games, songs and dance was planned. 

The program started off with the distribution of fruit cake and Sprite, early in the evening.  Dr. Nikhil gave the boys an interesting talk on personal hygiene and this was much appreciated by the boys.  Mrs. Sheela joined us and distributed colourful examination boards to the children.  Mr. Suresh with his guitar taught the boys some beautiful carols and they joined in with much gusto. 

In between the program, lucky numbers were called out and small prizes were distributed to the children; the Christmas gift itself being a colourful hand towel for each of the boys.  And finally the moment they were all waiting for - a festive dinner. Vegetable burgers and fried chicken provided by Castle Crunch, Guntur - who gave us a big discount on the price; this was followed by a flavoured rice, the evergreen gongura and yogurt raita. 

Whispering Hope lived up to its name by bringing in a mile of smiles. Photographs have been put in the album alongside.
