More on the Modern Songhran Festivities

April 17, 2011 - it's Palm Sunday. After Mass a follow-up with parishioners, children and youth of the parish with Songhran festivities.



































The following pictures: Songhran festivities with the children and youth outside St. Michael's Church and Mother of Perpetual Help Center.



























While Songhran still holds true to the original idea of a simple pouring of water over the hands of friends, relatives and especially the elderly - there is a fine element of having a real happy time and with the heat of April as one of the hottest months of the year - the water helps to cool everyone down. The pictures above give you an idea of the enjoyment had by the children and youth outside of the Church and Center walls.
