Nothing brings more joy to a church lady than playing Mexican bingo, Loteria! 🇲🇽
About every four months after Mass, our parish has Loteria for about 200 parishioners, first come first served.
Loteria is like bingo, except the card has four pictures across and four pictures down, where Bingo has five by five numbers.
Each card has different pictures and when the Loteria caller yells out a picture in Spanish, you have to know what to look for. We use bottle caps to cover the space.
The Altar Society gets donations from local businesses and they give them as prizes.
They usually have ten prizes per session so there's plenty of happy church ladies and men at the end of the day. 🙏

Fun! Church bingo was some of my first exposure to gambling; I would play at our annual festival (pull tabs too!) when I was maybe 11 or 12.

Am indifferent on this, I don't really support a game after church service or mass.
Am here to deliver the weekend freewrite prompt to you.
Here you go.
