YPFDJ-DC host annual mother’s day event with a Bang!

To most people every day is mother’s day if they love and appreciate their mother, however in order to mark a special day for mothers each year in May mother’s day is celebrated throughout the world. In Washington D.C on this special occasion as has been done by YPFDJ and NUEYS in the past the tradition continued this past weekend.

With a traditional theme including the coffee ceremony as well as food and drinks members of YPFDJ-DC treated the mothers to a special gathering. As if the beautiful spring weather was not enough, the Eritrean mothers mostly from the metro D.C area were being pampered by the youth along with special gifts provided by YPFDJ-DC courtesy of a young Eritrean businessman Thomas Musa. The mothers received beautiful “Finjal” traditional mini coffee cups with a bag of coffee beans inside to go along with it.

The day ended with a cake cutting ceremony as most everyone at the mother’s day event had to also be at the fourth Mekhete for the metro D.C area which took place two and half hours later at another location in DC.

The YPFDJ-DC would like to congratulate all mothers and especially Eritrean mothers and those mothers who attended the event for being our leaders of the community our protectors from evil and our guiding light during times of need and for being who you are everyday. We appreciate you.

Happy mother’s day and please see the video below from the mother’s day event that took place this past weekend.
