Day of Love and Friendship (Día de amor y amistad)

Here in Mexico we celebrate Valentine’s day a little differently. While it is still a day where people acknowledge romantic love, it is not the only focus. It is also a day to acknowledge all the friendships you have in your life. In our IBAAN school we celebrate this day of Love and Friendship by having fun and enjoying each other’s company. This year our party was facilitated by Megan Kvistad. We had decorations, cards to give to each other, valentine bingo, a drama, and lots of food. The children were able to learn from the drama that even though we mess up and sometimes do things contrary to God He still loves us very much and desires that we give Him all of who we are in order to truly understand love and have a pure heart.
