“Thank you for receiving me and my team with open arms and also for your prayers as well as birthday wishes”, the celebrant said.
Responding, the President of the Widows Association in the Parish, Mrs Gladys Pascal, applauded the actress for identifying with them, stressing that the gesture would go a long way considering the current economic hardship in the country.

“God will continue to add more years to your years so that you will continue to reach out to the less privileged in the society. You will never lack any good thing. God will supply every of your needs even before you ask. God bless you richly.”
