It was with great emotion that the JPIC International team received this donation for Gaza. The hearts of these children teach us so much! With great wonder and gratitude...

To celebrate the Feast of Mater Admirabilis 2025 under the theme “I listen to my conscience,” the children of Armenia wished to make a heartfelt gesture of love for life by reaching out to the children of Gaza.

Throughout October, each child contributed the value of a food item—such as an egg, a tomato, a kilo of flour, a kilo of rice, a bag of water, or a packet of sweets—placing their donation in a sealed envelope. They entrusted the RSCJ with delivering these gifts, accompanied by their warmest smiles, to the children of Gaza.

On the day of the celebration, all children—whether they were able to contribute or not—expressed their solidarity by coloring and decorating an image of Mater. Through this act, they placed their prayers at the feet of Mater Admirabilis, asking that no child in the world may suffer, holding the children of Gaza especially close to their hearts.
