Warsaw, Poland - December 2020 - “You, Lord Jesus, are reborn in every child, you identify with those who are hungry, who are sick, who are naked; who have nowhere to take refuge, with all those who are hungry not only for bread, for clothes, for home, but for love.” This is a famous prayer of Mother Teresa of Calcutta. The many children and young people who are beneficiaries of the “A gift for the whole year” campaign by the Salesian Mission Office in Warsaw are hungry, for love and for life.
