To write a fitting quotation from the Holy Bible, Jesus said: "Blessed are those who help the weak and inform." The Hospice Movement members are a group of benefactors of a generous nature. To give them a suitable praise: They are an active movement with a heart of gold.

I have seen them carrying old and weak patients to St Luke's and Boffa hospitals. They have a sense of kindness and fine Christian duty, and are ready to assist and help those who require their service, which is promptly given with grace and satisfaction. They are indeed doing something good for others.

Many use their useful transportation from their home to these two hospitals, and naturally are taken back to their homes. This service is done free of charge.

At Dr Boffa Hospital I saw them offering tea, coffee with biscuits, in addition to refreshments and water, according to the taste of those present. This service is open to all patients, nurses and doctors on duty around the place.

This nice service must be extremely praised, for they do merit someone to give them publicity for their services.

God give them the blessings they need to carry their Christian duty. Blessed are they.
