Wed, Apr 21 2010It was a wonderful day indeed. The aroma of home made food was awesome. 'Sanna & Dukra maas' was mouth watering. Though exhausted, the volunteers were cheerful and with hospitable smile. Games, lucky dips, entertainment....was a spirit filled day for all the Parishoners of Sacred Heart Church.
