美丽台湾处处情 (5) LAL Taiwan


On the third and the last day morning, we visited Chang Mama Studio a stone-throw away from the church.

Chang Mama, 80 years old, still hand make many Seediq tribal handicrafts.
 
Later, Fr. Nguyen brought us to Wu She (where the heroic uprising of Seedeq tribe taken place) for breakfast before leaving Chun Yang. We said goodbye to Fr. Nguyen and continued our journey to Mei Xi.

We met Fr. Ho, the Parish Priest of  Mei Xi Church of our Lady of the Hills. He shared about his pastoral works in the parish which covers a few outstation chapels.

The friendly Fr. Ho, also a Vietnamese from Little Brothers of St. John Baptist Congregation, invited us for tea and served us with Vietnamese Civet Cat Coffee。

The old church was destroyed during 2009 earthquake. The present new church was built a few years ago.

Bidding farewell to Jing Yi and Zhu Rong, we returned to Taichung in the evening, ending our unforgettable Chun Yang trip.

第三天的早上,阮神父带我们到教堂附近的“张妈妈工作室”去参观手工艺品。

张妈妈今年80岁,身体健康,还亲手制作许多赛德克传统手工艺品。
 
过后,阮神父带领我们到雾社享用道地的早餐,然后怀着依依不舍的心情,向他道别,往下一站前进。

我们到了湄溪山地圣母教堂,见到了健谈的胡孝廉神父。他非常热情的接待我们,邀请我们共进茶点。他还拿出了来自越南的狸猫咖啡与我们分享。

湄溪教堂在921大地震时受摧毁,现在这间是重建的新教堂。

结束了春阳之行后,我们回到北投,用过了午餐,然后到著名的『微热山丘』凤梨酥销售店参观,才与静宜及竹蓉两位姐妹告别,正式结束了这难忘之旅,取道回台中。
