Mitta for Life organized a pilgrimage trip to Sri Lanka lead by Chief Rev. Indaratana from 18th Dec to 24th Dec. 2010 From the beginning to the end of the trip, we enjoyed the trip, caring and sharing with each other like a big family holiday. We visited Negombo, Anuradhapura, - the ancient capital of Sri Lanka from 5th Century B.C. to 10th Century A.D. Anuradhapura, is the World Heritage site, Sigiriya, Dambulla Cave Temple, and many more interesting places.
On the 2nd last day of our trip , we participated in Maha Sanghikadana and Gangaramaya, Kalaniya and had the opportunity to lay the foundation brick for Hospital - Amata hospital for the Sangha. It was a wonderful, fruitful experience and a very blessed trip.
We like to thank Chief Rev for his time, planning, guidance and blessing making this trip a memorial one to all of us. Sadhu...Sadhu....Sadhu.......

At a Glance - Angela's Farewell Party

Angela a dedicated mitta volunteer since year 2006
On Oct. 2nd. Mitta organised a Farewell Party for Angela, who will be migrating to Australia with her family. Angela's ever smiling face draws many friends, welcoming them with a glow of warmth and a touch of Reiki love. She is very sincere, and ever so willing to share dhamma with all her friends. When Mitta Wednesday Reiki session, started in November 2006, she was the first to volunteer to help on Wednesday.

Deep in dhamma and a sincere heart, in 2008, Angela lead a group of volunteers and friends to Bodhgaya, India. We are all very impressed with her enthusiastic, energetic effort to help all those she meet in her life.

Those who have worked with her, will definitely missed a cheerful friend and sister.
Wishing Angela and her family All the Very Best & Success - with prosperity, joy and happiness and health in Australia.
