It is now winter in South Africa. The weather is cold with very low temperatures at night. Fellow practitioners of Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association in Cape Town, South Africa, in accordance with Master's instruction, have been taking action to care for the homeless people. In the most recent warmth-sending activity, fellow practitioners extended again the spirit of helping each other. They enthusiastically volunteered to take up the various preparatory work, like shopping and cooking to prepare the vegetarian food boxes.

　Mr. Huang, an overseas Chinese living in Queen's Town, when he heard that Supreme Master Ching Hai is organizing an activity to send warmth into the cold winter, he immediately donated several dozen new woollen wear. This illustrated that there is always love and warmth among human beings. Whenever someone takes the lead to do something correct and meaningful, the love and virtues which have always resided in human's heart will be aroused. They will rise up to help support the action.

　On one Sunday afternoon, after two days of diligent meditation, fellow practitioners embarked on the journey! They took bags of winter clothing and hot meals to the homeless people in the Claremont suburb. Some of those who came forward to receive the gifts were only wearing very thin, torn clothes, and were shivering in the cold wind. On receiving the big jacket or the wind-proof clothing, they put them on immediately. There was a sense of gratitude and excitement on their faces as a result of this unanticipated present of love as they eat the fresh, rich and delicious meal, enjoying the infinite love from God.

　Fellow practitioners were very happy to have been able to participate in this activity. They want to thank Master for Her teachings and the chance given to them to utilize and expand their loving hearts. Some fellow practitioners said that they slept exceptionally well and were very warm that night.
