Christmas comes early for Palapye residents :: Mmegi Online

It is that time of the year again when Christians across the world celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. The other fun part about this season is that the spirit of giving is everywhere.

This is why for the very first time, River View Mall in Palapye in collaboration with Kingdom Embassy International Church hosted their first annual Christmas Tree Reveal and Lighting recently. The duo also decided to give 100 underprivileged members of the community early Christmas gifts in the form of food hampers worth P410.

According to Capello director from River View Mall, Palesa Tiro, Christmas time had become such a commercial concept and as a result core fundamentals of that time of the year were slowly withering away. She said the spirit of Christmas is supposed to embody a sense of love, community and charity. This time of the year is the time for thanksgiving and a time to come together and count our blessings.
