2022-09-24 Mid-Autumn Moon Festival: Mooncake making and BBQ

Another wonderful event is in the history books! This year the Mid Autumn Moon Festival was in two parts. 

First the Relief Society sisters gathered with a few brothers, youth,  missionaries, and friends to learn how to make moon cakes at the chapel. Sister Hsueh prepared the ingredients and taught about 25 people how to make the moon cakes. While many were making mooncakes, some were making paper lanterns for the next day's decorations. 

The next day, the fresh new air was brisk and chilly at Shelter F in Black Hill Regional Park. Nearly 60 people joined in the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival celebration this year on Saturday.  Although the moon was not visible, the picnic was worth attending as many friends and families attended to show unity, joy, love, and friendship among old and young, Chinese and English speakers, brothers and sisters, friends, and family. President Arnold and his wife were gracious to join us for the celebration.  Besides the cornucopia and variety of food ranging from grilled pineapples to spicy pumpkin salad to veggie burgers, 80 mooncakes and dozens of lanterns were made at the chapel the previous evening and were served as a reminder of the moon festival. Happy Moon Festival!
