11:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
BBC Fellowship Hall
The "A Time Remembered Tea" held in honor of our senior saints, ladies 70 years old or older, was a wonderful soul inspiring event. Over sixty ladies were in attendance, twenty were our honored guest.
Our honored guest were greeted with the pinning of a beautiful red rose corsage. They then took their place at a table draped with a white linen tablecloth that cascaded to the floor. The place setting was of the finest china furnished from the homes of our younger ladies. The teacups set ready for the wonderful event to follow.
The program began as the Tea Lady, Mrs. Brenda Rowell, all dressed for the part, set the scene with her reflections on the art of taking tea. A time to be still and enjoyed with someone special.
The ladies were served a hot cup of Rooibos Creme Caramel tea with scones and faux devonshire creme or lemon curd. Next came Chicken Salad on a Croissant with a side of Grape Salad. Then came the tiers of assorted muffins, finger sandwiches, and tea time sweets.
As the ladies enjoyed their tea time, they were serenaded with beautiful instrumental music by the Borton ladies.
At the close of teatime, Mrs. Peggy Carroll, sang a song especially dedicated to our senior saints entitled, "I Saw Jesus in You."
Our honored guest were presented with a special framed verse and a booklet compiled with notes of gratitude to our senior saints reflecting on the impact that their lives have had on others.
The Tea ended as all the ladies joined in singing "Thank You, Jesus...for all you done."
This day will be remembered by young and old as one of the most memorable ladies event.
Our honored guest, pinned with a red rose.
