Anyone for hats and handbags, pearls and gloves and a good cup or glass of delicious tea? We began our monthly JEWELS meeting, well attended, I would add, with a prayer for God's blessings upon each lady present and especially, for our speaker, Mrs. Blanche Frasier.
Our Freedom Baptist ladies, and guests, were invited to wear a favorite hat, gloves and jewels for the evening as we listened to a great study of King David and his praises to God.
Our hearts were encouraged to know that God cares about every fine detail of our busy, day-to-day life. His plans are perfect and we are complete in our holiness before Him when we follow in His will for our lives. When we praise God, in all things, we show forth His holiness.
Mrs. Frasier also presented a history of tea and provided a tantalizing display - to be sampled later in the evening, along with delicious desserts crafted from the hands of our Freedom Baptist ladies.
We learned that consuming tea can be not only healthy for us, but can offer company on a cold, Winter evening, as well as refreshing in Summer's scorching heat. Tea is the second most widely consumed beverage in the world, second only to water. Tea itself has its origin in China. Offering such delicious taste, it quickly spread around the world – now enjoyed by billions.
The hats and gloves were so popular that evening that it was requested by many that we designate a Sunday of the month, the 2nd Sunday, month, as hat and glove Sunday at FBC. 
Thanks to all who came out for a treat of tea and blessing from God's Word. Thanks, of course, always goes to our most honored Guest, Jesus Christ. Thank you, each lady, and guest for attending, and special thanks to Mrs. Frasier for the informative, interesting topic of the evening.
How sweet it would be,
For you and I to enjoy a cup of tea.
Petits fours, crumpets, scones and more,
Your place, or mine, the time is at four.
Please come, bring a friend, or two.
It will be my pleasure to share tea with you.
