A Birthday Celebration

Today after the chapel service a number of us gathered in the the pastors home to celebrate the 18th birthday of one of young people. In the Filipino culture they make a huge deal when a girl turns 18. Here were most of the other ladies there gathered with Angela for a special photo just prior to dinner.
Angela is the one in the orange dress. As you can see it was a huge feast including a roast pig.
Have a great week everyone

It's a feasting for the eyes, imagine what it is for the stomach. Great gathering with so much food to enjoy.

What a feast! We once were guests at the Filipino home of one of my students, and the food was this plentiful!

[Colleen Culhane]

Funny how different cultures have different important birthdays; for Jews it's boys at 13, Hispanics it's girls at 15.

All for the meaning of adulthood for this young lady!
