Africa! a celebration

Kraineem (24 March 2004)

By Judith Martin

We often hear negative reports of Africa, and rarely hear good tidings. But in fact, there is much of African culture we can all enjoy and respond to - fashion, music, dance, and the famous South African wine. Not to mention the sunshine and wildlife. So put the date in your calendar now, 18th April, and prepare to have lunch at church and enjoy an afternoon of family entertainment. In true St Anthony’s style, the Knights will provide a braai (South African barbeque) and there will be original and traditional music by 2 excellent groups. To add to the fun, there will be a tombola and lots of workshops and games for the children and young at heart.
Proceeds will go to the educational expenses of some of our parishioners, who are nursing students in Brussels. There will be no set charge for the lunch, we rely on your generosity and the spirit of celebration. We will use a ticket system like at the Fayre for the other elements of the afternoon.
To add to everyone’s enjoyment, please come wearing traditional clothing if you are African, and improvise something colourful if not! Make it a party to remember!
