Harvest Time in Vietnam

The children from the Children's Rosary at Bac Hoa Orphanage wanted to share a celebration they had on September 24th 2017.  Several of the older children who are part of the Children's Rosary and do not live at the orphanage helped the nuns who run the orphanage to plan something for the children at the orphanage. There is a Mid-Autumn festival in Vietnam that is one of the biggest festivals of the year. It is know by many as the children's festival.  The origins of the festival was a desire during harvest time for parents to do something special with their children. To spend extra time with their little ones. 

The celebration they had at Bac Hoa did not include the children's parents as many of the children in Vietnam were doing. Instead the children took the opportunity to spend more time in prayer with their Heavenly Mother and the Baby Jesus. The children spent the day praying, singing and even held a procession with their Heavenly Mother and the Baby Jesus. 
The children were able to take turns giving Our Lady and Jesus flowers. There was special food and treats for the children. 
It is beautiful to see how the children are able to weave prayer into everything in their life.
