continued...Ladies TEA


The luncheon this year was filled with so many enjoyable decorations...

This table represented the main theme: "TIME FOR TEA"

This lovely little tea set was unique in it's coming about...my mother gave me the sugar and creamer set a few years ago!... one day while shopping at TJ MAX in my search for luncheon decor...I happened upon the lovely tea pot that MATCHED my cream and sugar set! Yes..I was beside myself!!! and the price was fantastic! Thankfully, no one could see my inside JUMPING up for joy!! Then...weeks later..I found the matching "TEA" cups! Not only was it perfect with the TEA emblem-matching the tea pot,but a nice treasure for myself to keep.





The creative young gal that usually does my scrapbooking work...was unable this year...and another TALENTED young woman came through with the most gorgeous work!

I wrote this poem and asked if she could embellish it somehow??? for me to use as a display! VOILA...a masterpiece!!! so adorable as a TEA BAG!!!




“Time for Tea”
Lovely moments of friendship
Spent over a cup of tea
Aromas of a pleasant scent
Memories of unity
~~~~
A beautiful cup of hospitality
Generosity, oh so sweet
Blessed around the Word of God
Our faith in Eternity meet.


It was indeed a wonderful time just as the poem states. Lovely moments of friendship (as you will see in my next post of the different tables our ladies decorated)...wonderful aromas of Creme Brulee and various flavors of tea...we reflected on our past luncheons..this was the ninth! I myself couldn't believe I've been doing this for nine years!! Next year being the tenth..I get to be a guest! I hope..as the ladies have shown their own talents and have learned from the experience over the years..preparing themselves..and Lord willing if any of their husbands are called into the ministry...

They now can put on a lovely Ladies Luncheon and feel confident.

I have been thankful and blessed in the opportunity... Titus 2..that the aged women...TEACH the younger women...

Please join me again as I share more on this fun, creative occasion.

HOPE
