October 6-8, Barcelona, Spain – Europe Yatra 2015
On all the three days huge crowds lined up around the block for their chance to meet Amma. Many were coming to meet Amma for the first time but others, like the Mayor, the Honorable Josep Mayoral, have been coming yearly to welcome Amma.
Granollers, Spain, has been hit hard by the economic crisis. There are 5,000 unemployed adults in the city, and half of them don’t have access to any form of government aid. For the third year in a row, Embracing the World is sponsoring 50 underprivileged children who are unable to afford school cafeteria and transportation as well as medical care and after school programs. Mr Mayoral accepted the donation and thanked Amma for her support of the less fortunate members of their community. He shared his thoughts with the gathered assembly “It is the message of peace, equality and unity, and she gave us this help that we deeply appreciate and that it is used so all this children can continue with all their activities like any other children in the city.”
Several other dignitaries from local and state government offices came to officially welcome Amma to the region, over the 3 days.
The final evening program of Devi Bhava lasted all night and finally ended at 9am.
Amma and the tour group then travelled to Munich, Germany for the next stop on the tour.
