Merry Christmas Dominica… to all our nature island brothers and sisters, the “sons and daughters of this gem beyond compare”, we wish you God’s guidance and upliftment in celebration of the wonderful peace on earth good will to men message that accompanied the Christ child to Bethlehem 2,020 years ago
Regardless of the challenges and difficulties in our social and economic circumstances, Christmas remains a favorite time of the year for the Nature Island people of Dominica. This year, under the cloud of the deadly covid 19 pandemic, we embrace the precious gift of the Holidays – spending time with family, friends and loved ones with all the joy that characterizes the season. But especially this year, we must do so responsibly, observing all the hygiene, personal protection and social distancing protocols that have kept us relatively safe so far from the ravages of a global public health crisis that has sent millions to their graves.
As we close yet another year in the struggle to build an ideal, nature island society and a sustainable nature island economy, we join the millions of Christians of good conscience around the world to celebrate the birth of Jesus. We reflect on his story from that Holy Night and his everlasting message of endless love, abiding faith, compassion and hope.
In humble adoration, we reflect on guidelines for joyous nature island living that have emerged from His teachings:
“Rivers do not drink their own water; trees do not eat their own fruits; the sun does not shine for itself and flowers do not spread their fragrance for themselves. Living for others is a rule of nature. We were born to help each other”.
This Christmas, let us all appreciate the that priorities of Mathew 69 are not about deliberately seeking donations, as a strategy to build one own wealth.
Let's us continue turn our heads to the other side when our supporters ask or seek help.
Alsa not even a one lb ham or 2lb turkey 🍗 .
