Hi All,
A Christmas eve tradition at Tumacacori Mission is to adorn the church and mission grounds with Luminarias (candles in bags). After a wonderful pot-luck supper with the Sonoita Creek volunteers, we joined thousands of other visitors at Tumacacori.
Walled entryway lined with candles
Church walls and dome
Flowered cross on the altar
Inside one luminaria
The grounds were covered with candles, 2,500 on all. Staff and volunteers spent hours placing then lighting all of them.
After the tour, we had hot chocolate and home made cookies. Volunteers made 250 dozen cookies!!!
It was a wonderful event and we got to see many of the staff and volunteers with whom we had worked.
Merry Christmas to all our Christian friends and family.
Love,
Sandy & Carl
