On Sunday April 11th, 2021, the KPP members in Port-a-Piment celebrated the 10th year Anniversary of Konbit Pou Potapiman. It was a celebration of pride and of accomplishments.
Under the leadership of the KPP General Secretary, Mrs. Paule-Edeline Orcel, members in Port a Piment organized a well appreciated set of activities to mark this special anniversary. Accompanied by the local Fanfare, the many school children sponsored by KPP, parents and residents, walked from Avenue du Port to the Notre-Dame du Rosaire Church. The church was filled to capacity and many others watched the live broadcast on Facebook, courtesy of Phedo Lubin.
With fervent prayers and uplifting music by the church choir, all joined in a spirit of unity and of gratitude for the many blessings and successes that KPP has had for the past 10 years. Reverend Priest Cherfils celebrated the thanksgiving mass.
Mrs. Paule Edeline Orcel took the opportunity to thank all members of KPP as well as the friends from abroad who throughout the years, supported our cause. She cited the various sustainable projects realized by KPP in the commune and spoke of the ongoing programs, particularly those in the domain of Education. As the ceremony ended, the participants delighted in a parade by the young and energetic marching band. Residents from all corners of the town applauded the display of so many young talents while others, including KPP members, followed the musicians throughout the parade route.
A reception was held at the Salle Paroissiale for the parents and beneficiaries of the KPP Sponsorship program, for the school directors, and other invitees. It was the occasion to reinforce the partnership between KPP and the residents of Port a Piment. Refreshments were served and the day ended on this very encouraging note.
