The Gift of a House
At the heart of the Christmas story is ‘coming home’. Jesus, the Son of God, finds a home with Mary and Joseph, and we are called to come home to God through our Advent journey. Having a home is central to a family’s sense of well being and security. Millions around the world like Maria Daisy Oyola from Bogata, Colombia, are living in makeshift shelters. Last year Maria and her family received Trócaire’s Christmas Global Gift of a housing kit and are now very proud of their new home. €200 / £180 provides skills and tools to families living in makeshift shelters, to build a lasting home.
