NILAI: In a world where kindness and togetherness often shine brightest, the collective effort of a dedicated group of individuals can create a ripple effect that changes lives. This truth was evident when the Choice KL 107 team came together to serve the Orang Asli community of Kampung Tekir, Nilai, as part of their Make A Difference (M.A.D.) Project. This effort, which took shape over two months of planning, was more than a simple gathering; it was a reflection of God’s love and the power of unity.

After weeks of meticulous preparation, the team gathered recently with the community to provide not only essential groceries for each household but also educational materials to support the growth of children ranging from 2 to 18 years old. This initiative was designed to go beyond giving; it aimed to empower and nurture the spirit of hope for the future.

The day was filled with excitement as the villagers came together with enthusiasm, contributing ideas and offering their time to ensure the success of the celebration. This collaborative spirit was a testament to the power of community and the shared desire to make a meaningful impact.

Throughout the day, a range of activities brought joy to the community. Families bonded over ornament-making workshops, while games like musical chairs brought laughter and camaraderie to all ages. The sounds of singing and dancing filled the air, creating an atmosphere of celebration that was felt by everyone.

As the evening unfolded, the community gathered for a Mass celebrated by Fr Christopher Soosaipillai, a moment that allowed everyone to reflect on the significance of the day and the power of coming together in the spirit of service. The Mass was followed by a communal dinner prepared with love by the villagers, embodying the true meaning of sharing and fellowship.

This gathering was a manifestation of the team’s dedication, God’s guidance, and the commitment to making a difference in the lives of others. Through their shared vision, the Choice KL 107 team exemplified how faith, teamwork, and compassion can come together to create a lasting impact on a community. As we look to the future, may we all be inspired by this example of unity and service, continuing to live out God’s word by loving our neighbours as ourselves. Shivonne & Mary Beth (Choice 107)
