Mother's Day

Here in Peru we follow the USA date for celebrating mother's day, Sunday 13th. We decided to have a breakfast folowing the morning service and shared a feast of tamales, a traditional Peruvian parcel of corn and chicken wrapped in leaves. Sounds strange but actually it is very good, these were particulary tasty if I say so myself as I don't usually like them! Each mother received a gift and then there was a raffle of three shawls (gettting ready for the colder weather) won by Gaudencia, Angelica and Etelvina.


















The young people helped serve, tidy and give out balloons.
