Third Carlesso Family Reunion: integration and friendship
About 170 people took part in the third family reunion, in Chapecó, Santa Catarina.
The reunion began on the Saturday with the "Filó Familiar". It continued on the Sunday, when most of the participants arrived. Our family was strongly represented by relatives from the state of Santa Catarina, followed by Rio Grande do Sul.
The reunion took place in two venues: the CTG Coxilha do Quero-Quero and the Comunidade Nossa Senhora da Saúde, in the Vista Alegre neighborhood.
Breakfast was served at 8 am. At 10.30 the Holy Mass began, in gratitude for the lives of Luigi and Bernardina and of all the ancestors of the family who have gone before us, and as a moment to ask for what the countless descendants and families scattered across Brazil need.
Shortly after the Mass, back at the CTG, there was lunch, music and time for everyone to mix.
It was a well organized and joyful reunion that strengthened our family ties. Luigi and Bernardina would certainly be proud of the family.
Sincere gratitude to everyone in Chapecó who organized this reunion with such care.
