TBCD Sports Day 2025: A Celebration of Unity, Fun and Friendship

To refresh both mind and body, the Thangkhal Baptist Church (ABA), Delhi organised a joyful Sports Day at the Den Arena, Ghitorni, New Delhi on Saturday, 15 November 2025. The event was not only about games, but also about building unity, oneness and a strong bond among all members.

Mrs Chiinsuanching opened the day with a word of prayer. Soon after, the bus started its journey towards Ghitorni. When everyone settled in the green and peaceful playground, the local secretary, Mr Khamkholianthang, offered another prayer to begin the many games and competitions planned for the day.

The activities included football, 100m race, relay race, balloon race and volleyball. Each event was filled with excitement, cheering and friendly competition. These games helped bring people closer, encouraged teamwork, and strengthened the relationship among church members—building a sense of unity, oneness and belonging.

Before lunch, Mr Jacob Khupliankap, Chairman of the Mission Department, prayed and thanked God for His blessings. The lunch dishes—chicken, eggs and rice—were lovingly prepared by the Youth Department members. We are truly grateful to our youths for the delicious food they cooked for everyone.

After all the games were completed, Mrs Kimdeihniang offered the closing prayer, thanking God for guiding and protecting everyone throughout the event. As evening approached and the light faded, the participants returned, tired but happy. The bus headed towards Munirka, while those from Gurgaon also returned safely. Everyone reached home safe and sound. Praise the Lord!
