International Migrants Day is celebrated on December 18th. Our association received an invitation to an event held in the Marcelino Camacho Auditorium in San Sebastián De Los Reyes.The small gathering had representatives from four continents and was organised by El CEPI(Centro de Participación e Integración de Inmigrantes)
Local
authorities were there to listen to real life testimonies of people who have
crossed oceans to start a new life and build families but whose roots are very
strong .With patience and perseverance their prospects improved and one lady expressed the feeling we all have, that the Spanish are noble
people. El CEPI has been home from home for them.
Introductions
were made and smiles shared and we came away with our names written in
beautiful Arabic and Chinese script.
Our
association extends a welcome too.
