Afternoon Tea with St. Edith Stein

Did you wonder how the English take time in the afternoon for tea? In fact, there is a verse in the song "Do-Re-Me" from the movie, Sound of Music
that includes "...Te - A drink with jam and bread!...". Well, the entire song, makes one learn music and for me...yes, enjoy a cup of tea! Reminds me of the old English society where men and women would share news, stories, or simply welcome one another in friendship!

Recently, in speaking with a couple of women, we thought it would be a great opportunity to have a "spiritual afternoon tea".

So, Pilgrim Center of Hope would like to invite you for a cup of tea! For a time to enjoy a 'spiritual break' and be introduced to Saint Edith Stein! An introduction to a remarkable woman who lived in the 19th century and who died as a Carmelite Nun in a Concentration Camp in Germany.

So...come and enjoy a cup of tea, tea biscuits/pastries and a spiritually renewing break on Thursday, January 28th at 2Pm; ending at 3:15pm with Chaplet of Divine Mercy in the Center's Chapel.
