Christmas time is unique in a few respects. On the one hand, it brings everyone together to reflect upon accomplished tasks, while on the other hand new plans are being made. At this particular period we ask ourselves whether we have thanked and forgiven others, whether we apologized to everyone. This is the time when one wishes to do only good work, relish together with others and expect a Christmas miracle. This year we would like to invite the members of our community and all guests not only to enjoy this event but also to help children affected by leukaemia and their families in Lithuania. The money donated during the event will be sent to the Childhood Cancer Fund Rugute whose main objective is to extend aid and charity to children with cancer, to help their families, as well as to support the development of the science and practice of oncology.

The Lithuanian-Dutch Community cordially invites you to the Gracious Christmas celebration. The event will take place on 12 December 2009, 12 pm at the Swedish Cultural Centre, Parklaan 5, 3016 BA Rotterdam.
