Church & Culture
On Sunday's my familia and I walk to St. Michael's Church for mass where Father Powers, the priest, has been a part of the church for over 25 years. This year there was a big Festa do Espirito Santo celebration in town with a parade, dinner, and dancing. Above is a photo taken from the festival of the Holy Ghost parade where girls walk to remember the sacrifices of the Portuguese Queen Isabel to honor the Holy Ghost. Maybe next year I will be able to be a part of the parade as well. Do you go to any events like the Holy Ghost Festival? Do you notice any similarities or differences in the churches that you see today?
