Festa Junina at our parish, São Pedro de Alcântara

One of the biggest Brazilian celebrations in the calendar year is the Festa Junina, a holiday commemorating Saints Peter, Paul and John. The parishes all hold the equivalent of a parish festival, with traditional dances, food, songs, games, etc.

This year we joined some friends for the party at our parish, which is really close to our home.
