The Adventist Community Health Centre opened its doors to celebrate Christmas with the community.

The ACC team gathered to prepare the delicious and nutritious dishes and gifts early Christmas morning, by noon time everything was ready to receive the guests, that in this case, where the most needy from the community.

The place was filled with people who enjoyed the food and while eating the UNAI (Adventist University of Indonesia) Chorale sang songs of Christmas cheer for the event. Right after the carolling, gifts were given to the children, and immediately after, families received a bag full of goods such as 5kg rice, a bottle of oil, biscuits, baked beans and a copy of end time book were given as a Christmas gift to the handicapped, elderly, Myanmar refugees and poor families alike.
Around 90 people gathered in the centre, 40 families received the bag of goods and 50 children received gifts. A week before the Christmas celebration, ACC choir team conducted a series of house-to-house carolling in order to raise fund for this big event. Together the team was able to raise close to RM3,000 which was enough to fund this project.
It was a day of rejoicing & sharing the Christmas message of love with the community, praise God!
