Reflecting of the meaning and value of family at Bread for the Weekend services in May

03/07/2019 


Throughout the month of May, the Order of Malta Korea completed five ‘Bread for Weekend’ services, where the members packed and delivered total 1,500 breads, serving 750 elderly seniors.

In Korea, May is a ‘family’ month for most, with Children’s Day and Parents Day celebrations.  Hospitaller Veronica Mihyun Kim and Bona Hye-jung Kang reflected on the meaning and value of family by participating in this volunteer activity on the 3rd May, just two days prior to the Children’s Day, together with Bona’s lovely seven-year old son Yong-won Cho, who insisted in helping and did a great job of packing and labeling the breads.
