Christmas celebrations held; carols and Santa add to the cheer

Christmas is a festival of spreading joy, giving and sharing, laughing, and spending time with family and friends. The MBA and IT department students of AIMIT gathered to celebrate Christmas on December 22.

In his Christmas message, Director Dr (Fr) Melwyn Pinto SJ quoted, “The core message of Christmas is to love, and love is giving until it hurts.” He also said that being grateful is yet another inspiration one could draw from the Christmas scene. “We must all show gratitude to everyone in our lives and be thankful to God for giving us opportunities in life and the gift of love that we share,” he added.

The audiences were treated to carols,dance and games.

The programme came to a close with the arrival of Santa Claus, who entertained the audience with dance and toffees.
