More Than Just Beverages Shared at High Tea

• provided by Central Christian Church for the Liberal, KS newspaper

The women of Central Christian Church and their guests were treated recently to more than delectable refreshments at their High Tea, but also to a wonderful, encouraging message from their guest speaker, Christian author, Elaine Littau.

Littau, author of 11 books, presented a message entitled, "Some Assembly Required" which reminded the audience that folks around us may feel like the person hurriedly assembling that toy under the Christmas tree on Christmas Eve only to find parts left over, with no clue where they belong. She encouraged those present to be aware of people who haven't quite found where they belong among us and help them to fit into the assembly.

As the wind and dust blew outside, Littau told the audience a bit about her latest book, "The Restless Kansas Wind", which is the forth book in her Rescued series. Her presentation was peppered with anecdotes of life with her husband, her sons and their spouses, and her grandchildren.

Once the group moved to the lower level for refreshments, the ladies had their choice of seating at one of eight beautifully decorated tables featuring china from members of the group. Each lady later told the story behind her china.

Delectable items to eat included fruit kabobs, mini cheesecakes, cucumber sandwiches, mini cupcakes, and cookies. A variety of teas and punch rounded out the fare.

Before the afternoon ended, the ladies had the opportunity to visit with Littau, as well as purchase her books.
