He said”We want to remind people that as much as we are celebrating Christmas, rejoicing with our families, I want to encourage you to remember those that are in the prison, the motherless babies homes, beggars in the street , try to do something outside the box.
‘You can take care of your family but go outside the box and remember those that live outside the box and to do something for them.
