Kitchenettes' Tea Party

The Kitchenettes have 2 new girls who have joined our hospitality club!
Welcome Morgan and Mariah!

The theme for February Kitchenettes was LOVE.
What better way to love someone than to serve them with hospitality- spending quality time pouring yourself out to honor and make another person feel special. The Kitchenettes have an awesome opportunity to do this in March for the senior ladies of our church. We have been asked to host and serve an Easter Tea Party!

In preparation for the big event we had our own tea party. The girls were each given recipes to make at their own homes with their moms and bring them to the party. They will make these same recipes again for the Easter Tea. We also made 2 recipes together in my kitchen. The girls learned different table design ideas, made favors for each of the ladies and how to create beautiful floral centerpieces in tea cups and other dainty containers.

We have begun a series of "Life Script Lessons" emphasizing the "The Fruits of the Spirit" from God's Word. I started the day out by giving each girl a Valentine Goody Bag and speaking on "LOVE". Next month, we will focus on "KINDNESS" as we pour out on our senior ladies.

Galatians 5:22
The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

Translation from the Message Bible:
Galatians 5:22
What happens when we live God's way? he brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard ~ things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely.
