Cafe Simpatico
Friday, October 27, 2023
Paul Phillips Hall at Fernwood Community Association 1923 Fernwood Road Doors open at 7:00 PM: Program at 7:30 PM
Join the Central America Support Committee and award-winning film maker Judy Jackson for a screening of Judy's film 'Central America and the Migrant Crisis - Where Can We Live in Peace'. The film discusses the story of the ABBA House migrant shelter founded by Pastor Ignacio Ramirez in Celaya, Mexico. This sanctuary helps tens of thousands of migrants, many women and children, who are fleeing violence, crime, climate change and corruption in Central America.
Recently, Pastor Ignacio was donated a large piece of land on which to build his vision of a Cultural and Human Rights Centre that will offer amputees medical, music and art therapy, along with educational workshops. It will be an example to the world of what is possible. We hope the event raises awareness regarding this amazing project.
Everyone is welcome! Refreshments including Fair Trade Nicaraguan coffee. Come see old friends, meet new people, and show your support for Latin America. Donations at this event are for ABBA House.
