A High Tea Gala!

Hello friends! Its Cara, things have been so busy I haven't been back for awhile, sorry about that. I just wanted you to know we are going to have a very exciting event coming this May 17th, 2009...The High Tea Gala! While at work, I had a friend suggest that this event would be a great fundraiser and things have just taken off since than. The entire church is excited for this event! Alisa and I went to The Mansion House Inn to see if it would be a good site. Would it ever! If you haven't been to the MHI you should check it out, it was origionally built in 1901 by the first doctor in Buffalo, Dr. Lott, for his bride. The wood floor pattern is just beautiful as well as the woodwork throughout. The house is beautifully restored and the guest rooms are to die for. I had no idea that Buffalo had such unique accomidations available. Pam McFadden, the owner was so gracious and practically donated the site for our event. Thank you!

The High Tea Gala will be exactly as it sounds, lots of good tea, delicious tea sandwiches and decadent desserts. Ladies, bring your daughters, granddaughters, and friends! Wear your best hat as there will be prizes for them, both child and adult-of course, this is optional, some folks just aren't hat people! There will be some entertainment, and maybe even a silent auction for those of you who enjoy that type of thing! We are planning some fun times for all:)

Anita McCart offered to be in charge of food, she is our resident expert in cooking, especially dessert, so get ready everyone to treat your tastebuds! I talked with Anita last night about the menu and was blown away by the treats she has planned. She has already put in alot of time and research into the food. I can't wait to taste it...

There will be posters throughout town announcing the event and we will put in some newspaper ads starting this week. Thank you Cindy and Rayme Inae for your hard work in this area, the results are fabulous!

If anyone wants to donate prizes to the event, or items to be donated, please contact me at (307) 620-2686 or email me at peterson2434@msn.com.

Everyone keep your prayers going! God is blessing us so greatly, we are over the $24,000 mark in donations and pledges! Thank you Lord for your blessings, we praise your Name!
