Nassau, Bahamas - On
Thursday, December 18, American and Bahamian staff from the U.S.
Embassy gathered at the Nazareth Centre to participate in a festive
holiday event bringing yuletide
cheer to 42 of the home’s children. U.S. Chargé d'Affaires Lisa

children to snacks and a special appearance by Santa Claus and Mrs.
