WCA Christmas Week 2021
This year, WCA has introduced the WCA Christmas Week 2021. Joined by WCA's partners, namely its Member Federations and Suryoyo Sat, each year during Christmas WCA and its partners will send Christmas gifts to Arameans in the homeland. This year, more than 500 Aramean children have enjoyed beautiful presents: from Qamishli in Northeast Syria to various towns and villages in the Tur-Abdin region in Southeast Turkey (Arkah, Beth Qustan/Boqusyone, Bsorino, Midin Hah, Deir Qubbe, Kfarze and Midyat). At the same time, WCA has sent personal gifts to the homes of its distinguished members and sponsors. Below are impressions from the WCA Christmas Week 2021.

3. WCA Members
We thank the volunteers from Cologne, Germany, who assisted us in preparing the WCA Christmas packages that were sent to WCA's members and sponsors in 6 languages. The photo below was taken by a grateful WCA Member from Germany who wanted to return the Christmas and New Year wishses to WCA and who wanted to show the content of his package. A happy member means a happy WCA!
