Today, we have had an afternoon for the parents, we wanted to have a fun time with the families to share with them some of the many blessings we have here. The program began with presentations from the children´s groups and a word of encouragement for the parents. Then we had a fun free time session, the children and their parents could use the pool, the sports court and the play area. We finished with a nice snack, "feijão tropeiro", a typical dish from this area of Brazil. I was responsible for the food, thankfully everything went really well, we didn´t really know how many would come, so we guessed to make enough for up to 250 people.
The morning was spent preparing the food, chopping many kg of bacon, smoked sausage and pork. In the end about 130 people came (maybe more, it´s hard to tell). When we have some photos we´ll put them on the blog. Here is a photo (from the internet) of feijão tropeiro
