Arrival of the First Missionaries, celebrated every March 5, is a day that recognizes the efforts made by missionaries in the spread of Christianity. According to history, these missionaries started their mission in New Zealand in 1814 and often traveled to other countries for the cause of religion. These missionaries were influential since they were educated and opted for peaceful methods to spread Christianity. In fact, some of them were also school teachers. Due to the dedication of these missionaries, their arrival into the region is celebrated every year.
Overseas N.H.S. Workers Day
Overseas N.H.S. Workers Day is celebrated yearly on the first Friday of March because taking care of the sick during long work hours is a noble deed. This year, it falls on March 6. Also, doing so while being far away from one’s own country and having to deal with the red tape, homesickness, and possible culture shock, requires tremendous grit and passion. Yet, this is what many N.H.S. workers from abroad go through as they try to make a living by helping others. Today is the day for the U.K’s medical community to show appreciation, and inclusivity towards their peers from other countries.
