Can a word break or heal a person?

These and other important questions about the power of words were discussed last week by volunteers of CO ACET with teens from our Hope and Healing center. 

During the meeting, the children were eager to discuss the importance of words in life and the purpose for which we use certain vocabulary. The young Ukrainians also shared their thoughts about the impact of negative and positive words on themselves and others. As a result, they concluded that words that bring goodness and joy to others make us stronger and happier!

Finally, the children had fun playing themed games traditionally prepared by the volunteers to consolidate the knowledge gained and improve the mood of the teenagers.

Such events with ACET give children the opportunity to delve into relevant and exciting topics of life, to openly share their experiences, and to spend time with their peers in an active and meaningful way. And we are very grateful for that!
