This gathering of the Okanagan Families With Children From Africa will celebrate the biggest festival of the Ethiopian calendar.  We’ll include all the secular parts of the Orthodox celebration, including eating great Ethiopian food and listening to Ethio music. Dancing and frolicking is encouraged! Parents should bring a *small* gift of a new article of clothing for their children, as is the tradition.
