Dear Friends,

All of us at COOJ are getting really excited with the response we are receiving 
to 
our previous appeal for items for the jumble sale. People have been donating 
really 
good and unique items even silver ware!! which promises a good buy for 
everyone!! 
Many are waiting to taste the mouthwatering vonxitt which probably some have 
not 
eaten for many years!!

I am attaching the programme. Please register for the competitions in advance. 
Can 
be done through phone at 2253450 or 9850150727.

Alexyz has been so good to offer his help by sketching caricatures of all those 
who 
would want to see the funny side of themselves!!

Hope to see you all with your families and friends and neighbours and... 
and.lets have a fun time together!!

Also do come in order to support our cause of rehabilitating people with mental 
illness. Your contribution will help us continue our services.

Please forward this message to all on your contact list. Thanks
Best wishes,
Peter

[Goanet] World Suicide Prevention Day

2012-09-09 Thread peter castelino

Dear Friends,
 
10th September is celebrated globally as World Suicide Prevention Day. This is 
a day when we remember all those who have lost their lives to suicide. We also 
remember their families and friends who are still trying to cope and pray for 
every person who is coping up with stress in their lives. It is a day when we 
strenghten ourselves by firmly believing that whatever the situation, we will 
not give up. There is always hope, there is always a way out. Every problem has 
a solution The world around us may not change but we can!!
DONT GIVE UP
 
I request everyone to:
1) wear yellow ribbons ( representing suicide prevention) which has a message 
"ASK FOR HELP". Never stay with your thoughts and emotions locked up inside for 
fear of being judged. Pick up a friend along your lifes journey whom you can 
trust and if the problem gets bigger then go to a professional.
 

 
2) Light candles at 8pm and say a prayer for all suicide victims and their 
families and the youth of today.
 

 
3) Pass this message to all on your contact list..
 
Lets unite together to bring hope,
 
Regards,
Team COOJ
