São Marcelo Community or Fazenda




São Marcelo Community or Fazenda is situated on a huge farm / fazenda owned by the French supermarket Giant "Carrefour". The workers live in two small villages on the huge farm and are provided with houses, a school, a teacher and even electricity {until 9 pm}. So if they loose their job they also loose the use of these facilities. I say mass for them in the school room once a month. The pictures are from a visit where Mass included a Baptism and the obligatory BBQ afterwards.
