Visiting the homes of boarding children

As the boarding children went home for their Diwali vacation, Frs. Xavier James, Sonu Walia and few boarding staff went to visit the boys and girls in different villages. The parents and children were so happy to welcome them also were surprised. It was an opportunity for fathers to learn about the real situation of children for better understanding.
