The Downtown Mission and Aquarium Windsor URGENT: What does Christmas mean to you?? Good evening everyone we would like to start by sharing a poem with you..... As Christmas time approaches again, We look forward to the celebrations, Families together drinking champagne, Opening their lavish presentations. Its a day to enjoy but not for all, So try to give them just a thought, The homeless, the lonely, give them a call, This is when they most feel distraught. Out on the streets while freezing cold, No bed or a room to be found, Loneliness doesnt affect just the old, Both are afflictions happening all year round. So look around you on this Christmas day, Try to give a stranger some cheer, It will give such pleasure when they hear you say, Please come in you are welcome here. Its oh so easy to fall to the floor, Life can easily turn into a mess, When that fine line is crossed it can feel so sore, You find your troubles you can no longer address. The message of Christmas should be one of hope, For everyone not just for some, A friendly ear can help the vulnerable cope, Ignorance can leave them feeling numb. We are all Gods children regardless of type, So never look down on another, What gives anyone the right to take a swipe? At what is a sister or brother? Christmas comes but once a year, For some problems last much longer, We may not make their worries disappear, But we can make them feel much stronger. Jesus Christ was born to save us from sin, Gods message is we are all as one, The gift of caring for others comes from within, ‘ Those Less Fortunate We Must Never Shun ‘ bri mar Aquarium Windsor wants to warm some hearts this Christmas and beyond....with The Windsor Downtown Mission, we would like to spread some community magic this Christmas....for those who feel forgotten by their community.. the less fortunate struggling to put food on the table..or gifts under the tree....for those that feel alone....
