Children on the move

Over 60 children and young people and their companions set off dressed as the "Three Kings" to collect money for projects in our go4peace partner group in Albania. With great enthusiasm, some of them were on the road for over 8 hours and mobilised their last reserves of strength to nourish the flame of hope for their peers. Some groups stopped off at our parish centre to warm up, have something to eat and then carry on. It was an impressive day. When I asked a little king with blond hair towards the end: "Tell me, did the crown actually take on the colour of your hair or did your hair take on the colour of the crown?" he told me: "It doesn't matter! I think it's so cool what we're doing that I'm going to sleep with the crown tonight!"
