Brava/Nha Santana: Party woman says she has a feeling of “duty and mission accomplished”

Speaking to Inforpress after the celebration of the mass in honor of the saint, Aida Cardoso recalled that it was not she who took the flag to celebrate, but that this mission was entrusted to her by the family that took this responsibility, but that for reasons of force majeure, even though they were on Brava, they couldn't handle everything.

Hence, it fell to Aida to take this responsibility and already at the end of the party, which has been going on for several days, she makes an “extremely positive balance sheet” and stressed that the reigning feeling is of “mission and duty accomplished”.

According to the same source, they fulfilled all the rituals and all of this was moved by faith, exemplifying that the whole community, regardless of residents or in the diaspora, as well as other people got involved and helped this family, even if in a difficult situation" celebrate with " dignity” this party.

So much so that, as he reinforced, tonight there was rain and at dawn, when they went to prepare the usual coffee, they were a little afraid if they would manage to do everything.

But, with the faith deposited in the saint, they managed to serve coffee to everyone who passed by, they put several pots with different dishes on the fire and at the end of the mass everything was ready to receive the crowd and wait for the people who followed the flag to standing in its usual ritual and route.

At the end of the day, Aida Cardoso recalled that the boat will be lifted to the mast and the flag will also be handed over to the next celebrant, stressing that she still has not had any light on who will have that faith to take the flag and celebrate it in the next year.

“If someone appears, she will not be alone, but also if the flag does not appear, she will not return to the church because the community will gather in the same way and celebrate her”, he ended by thanking everyone involved in the party of Nha Santana de Mato 2023 .
