The first children to be allowed back to Casa Bannatyne celebrated the feast of the Immaculate Conception on December 8th. They are a group of very poor and vulnerable boys who always need help with their learning and who have fallen behind during the pandemic and its lockdown. At Casa Bannatyne they will get extra help, as well as healthy meals, a warm bed, warm showers, recreational activities and of course, safety. Here are two photographs taken on the night of December 7th as the children followed the Colombian tradition of lighting candles on the vigil of the Immaculate Conception.
