The world is still facing war and rumor of war. Though nearly forty years have passed us by, the Wagoners' report radiates a timely hope for an answer that "takes away the occasion for war." Previously, we have been able to write only in briefest summary of the Primavera decades. This report will surely warm the hearts of all who experienced that period of our history. To those with no experience of it, we hope to give a glimpse and at least some understanding of that time. The Editors January 15, 1991 Com. in Par. 15 Nov 90 4 FOREWORD This is a charming and winsome story of the six month visit of Bob and Shirley Wagoner to the three Bruderhofs in Paraguay, known collectively as Primavera ("springtime" in Spanish).

ODDFELLOWS ODDFELLOWS “...And so the adventure begins” Welcome WELCOME TO ODDFELLOWS The Oddfellows was traditionally a historical society. Sometimes known as the society of misfits, they provided a place for those who didn’t fit into a professional box. They were not the lawyers, the doctors or accountants. Instead Oddfellows embraced the philosophers, dreamers and idealists – and still do today. As a hotel collection, we are inspired by the very British sense of eccentric creativity and joyful Oddfellows society’s ethos. This can be felt by our guests through the quirky design, the atmosphere and celebration of our building’s unique history and character. ON THE PARK 2 3 ODDFELLOWS ODDFELLOWS Our Hotels CHESTER Oddfellows Chester is housed within a beautiful example of an Oddfellows Hall where the society would once meet. The frieze inscribed with Oddfellows Hall still stands above the doorway today. Thus began the wonderful association with this society for dreamers with both sister hotels; Oddfellows and Oddfellows On The Park. Oddfellows Chester inhabits a wonderful Georgian townhouse first owned and built by Lady Mary Calverley in 1676.
