Holy Month at Wisma Cheshire: The Peaceful Moment to Share Love
Almost all of the Muslim residents at Wisma were fasting during the Ramadan season. We organized a fast breaking dinner together by inviting the Committee members, YVI members, volunteers, and ex-residents on the 22nd of May 2018. That was a great and heartwarming moment for people to ask forgiveness from each other and to renew their relationships with one another. At the reflection session, Ibu Barbara Speirs, the President of Wisma Cheshire, gave a motivational speech to all residents to continue to care for each other and to look after the sick residents such as Bapak Marto because we are all family in Wisma. She also led all residents to sing a song about “love” as a reminder to keep an open heart.
The same Ramadan spirit came true through a visit from Burger King Indonesia. They were so generous as they organized a fast breaking at Wisma Cheshire on the 8th of June 2018. CEO Burger King Indonesia, Mr. Punj Vaibhav was present. Together with fabulous management staff, they served the residents by playing games and other fun activities. They also provided the delicious Burger King packages, kindly gave Muslim dresses and pocket money to each resident. We want to thank Burger King Indonesia for their valuable and unforgettable donation to Wisma Cheshire.
