Hundreds of senior citizens visited the Community Center of the Archdiocesan Sanctuary of Health and Peace last Tuesday. To celebrate their day, a large program was held with plenty of physical activity and workshops, in addition to a performance by the Belo Horizonte Municipal Guard band.

The event was promoted by the Carlos Prates and Padre Eustáquio Health Centers. The day began with Lian Gong, an ancient art for exercising the body and mind; after that, health professionals checked blood pressure, measured glucose levels, and conducted short workshops on health throughout the day.

At around 3:30 pm, the musicians from the Belo Horizonte Municipal Guard band brought the festivities to a close with a beautiful performance at Espaço Molokai (located between the church and the community center) in the Sanctuary Complex.
