Mary Immaculate Bal Gurukul is an empowerment education programme of Indian Development Foundation run by the Sisters of the Immaculate at Benson Town in Bangalore.
Rev. Sr. Florita, Mother Superior, Mary Immaculate Sisters of Bishop Morrow and the Chief Guest for the event encouraged the students to become the little lights of God dispelling darkness towards knowledge of light and spread happiness in the society. The excitements of the children in the centre were boundless and they were immersed in joy of dance and merry. They were on cloud nine, when sweets and sparklers were distributed to them.
Dr. S. Franklin, Manager of IDF spoke on the spirit of Diwali and blessed the children on the occasion. Rev. Sr. Vincenta, Secretary of the Centre invoked blessings for universal peace and prosperity as the children of the Gurukul formed a procession with diyas in their hands. Sweet packets were distributed to all those who were present, sharing the joy with one another.
Earlier, Mr. Samuel Vincent, Development Executive of IDF welcomed the guests and children while Mohan, a ten-year old student of the Bal Gurukul proposed a vote of thanks.
It was truly a celebration of light kindling the hearts of many children in the centre.
