Today, on this sacred Poson Poya Day, we at St. Vincent’s Home came together in the spirit of solidarity, love, and unity.
Our boys and staff – including our Buddhist brothers & Sisters – joined hands to organize a joyful ice cream dansal to celebrate this important day in Sri Lanka’s spiritual calendar.
Though we come from different faiths, our mission remains one:
To walk together in peace, compassion, and respect.
This simple act of sharing reminds us that love knows no boundaries.
It was a moment of smiles, cool treats, and warm hearts.
Happy Poson to all who celebrate!
