September 17, 2011 - Mid-Autumn Moon Festival

FCC North Texas celebrated the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival by gathering at Cottonwood Park in Richadson.  

One of the most important celebrations in China, the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival is an evening celebration when families and friends gather together to light lanterns, eat moon cakes and appreciate the full moon when it is at its roundest and brightest. In China, this full moon is symbolic of a bountiful harvest and the reuniting of family, much like the American celebration of Thanksgiving. (Want to learn more about the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival?
