12/11/2020(1 event) Diwali - the festival of light! 
Diwali is the four- to five-day long Festival of Lights celebrated by Hindus, Jains, Sikhs and some Buddhists. One of the most popular dates on the Hindu calendar, Diwali symbolises the spiritual victory of light over darkness, and takes place each year between October and November after the conclusion of harvest and to coincide with the new moon. During the celebration, streets, homes, offices and shops are illuminated with light, which acts as a metaphor for knowledge and consciousness. Over the five-day period of the festival, people prepare by cleaning and decorating their homes. The festivities reach their peak on the third day, Diwali, which falls on the darkest day of the Hindu lunar month, Kartik. On this day, revellers dress up, light up their homes with oil lamps and candles (diyas) and worship Lakshmi, the goddess of prosperity and wealth. They also light fireworks and enjoy a feast with their family, sharing mithai (sweets) and gifts.
Here's a video of how different this festival might be in time of COVID-19!
A PRAYER FOR DIWALI
Light shines in darkness. Light takes away darkness. Light brings hope.

World Day of the Poor 
Pope Francis has declared 15th November 2020 as the 4th World Day of the Poor This is a beautiful short prayer for today: What can you do?On this day we are invited to offer friendship, solidarity and welcome to the poorest of our sisters and brothers. As we reach out with love and support, let us hold all members of our global family in our prayers. You may wish to watch and share Vladimir from Bolivia's prayer video above with your friends and family. You might also consider whether you are in a position to support others financially. Perhaps, you might consider in the run up to Christmas either asking for or making a World Gift!
