A Tribute to the Elderly: Church Outreach Ministry- Part III

 After the “Dancing Jellies”, we went to “Kulturang Pinoy” just beside “Boom na Boom” (a famous carnival) near Diosdado Macapagal Avenue.

It was a new treat for me and mom. I hoped dad was still with us. The structure was a typical nipa hut and at the entrance, we were greeted with ethnic music. After the warm welcome, the guide led us to the last room at the right side where they asked our group to dance some ethnic dances of the country. Pastor Orly, Ate Annie , Ate Anabelle and Tito Noni were the first who were brave to perform the dances. Sally joined too. Their performance was caught in video. It was great fun! 
After that, we went to another room on the other side of the area. It was a video room where we watched a very moving video about the life of elderly people, the hardships that they face and experience in their old age and their appeal to their children to understand what they are going through. Everybody was in tears as the movie ended.
 
We left after that and boarded our vehicles again. We were going to SM Mall of Asia.
