Today, the Araceli Aid Foundation embarked on a heartwarming outreach to Onitsha-Agu, Amagunze, in Nkanu East, Enugu, leaving a trail of blessings and hope. This mission, rooted in love and generosity, exemplified the Foundation’s commitment to alleviating hardship and fostering unity across communities.
The day began with the arrival of the team, welcomed warmly by the parish and community members. The parish priest expressed heartfelt appreciation to the Foundation for choosing their community as a recipient of this charitable act.
A Holy Mass followed, led by the parish priest, where prayers and blessings were poured out upon the Foundation, its team, and all sponsors who made the outreach possible. This sacred moment highlighted the divine inspiration behind the mission, setting the tone for a day of giving and gratitude.
Fr. Cornelius, the Director of Operations of the Araceli Aid Foundation, introduced the Foundation and its CEO Fr. Christian Iroha, whose vision brought this outreach to life. He shared the inspiring story of St. Martin of Tours, who tore his cloak to clothe a shivering man. This tale of selfless giving is at the heart of the Foundation’s mission and serves as a timeless reminder of the power of compassion.
Fr. Cornelius also acknowledged the sponsors whose generosity made this outreach possible. He encouraged the community to extend the cycle of giving: “As you have been given, so too should you give to others.”
The outreach culminated in the distribution of essential supplies, including bags of rice and oil, to families in the community. These simple yet impactful items were a source of joy and relief for many.
In a poignant moment, the Foundation’s message was clear: prayers are the only request. They asked the community to lift them up in prayers as they continue their mission of service.
The parish priest offered special thanks to the Foundation’s CEO, praising the outreach for embracing all denominations and bringing the community together. Prayers of blessing concluded the event, and everyone enjoyed a time of refreshment and fellowship.
