Happy Karen New Year!!!
On January 5th, 2007. The Karen youth group gathered in Daly city. Some youth were from Arizona, Daly City, San Francisco,Oakland, San Jose, etc. There was many ethnic groups that came and joined us during the Karen New year. Approximately 500 people came to Karen New Year. We were very happy to see all the old and new faces. It was a blessing from God that he brought us all together during this time.
So first of all, I would like to start with the food.
And uhmmm!! I wouldn't want to miss the food that was served on the tables!! The food were Super GOOOD!...So thank you for those of you who brought us all the delicious Karen food. Yummy Yummy!!At about 3 pm. We started the Karen New Year's performance.
Some of the performances were DONE dancing which was in the green/red costumes. The participants were from Daly City and Oakland.We practiced the dance every Saturday and Sunday at OBMBC. We give thanks to God for letting us practice in his house.
Another dance was the bamboo dance which was performed by Karen Daly City youth and Karen Oakland youth. This dance was actually last minutes dance, but we pulled it through by God's will.Some of the performances were DONE dancing which was in the green/red costumes.
