You are cordially invited to the
Lackland Baptist Church
Annual Ladies' Tea and Fellowship,
Saturday, May 2, 2026, at 11:00 am.

It's time for the biggest event of the year for the ladies and young women of our church--the Annual Ladies' Tea and Fellowship Party! Come enjoy a wonderful time of Christian fellowship, a yummy lunch, games, prizes, and more. We have a jam-packed event planned this year and can't wait to share it with you! Here are  a few things you need to know as you prepare for the party:

WHO IS INVITED?
All are welcome, so bring someone with you! Guests, and those who bring them, will automatically be included in a special drawing, so invite all the ladies/young women you know - young and old!

THIS YEAR'S SPECIAL THEME!
Our theme for this year's tea is "Pouring Out Love." As part of our event, you have the opportunity to bless others in the community. Please consider participating by bringing a new, or gently-used purse you no longer need, along with a few new personal care items in a separate bag (i.e. feminine hygiene products, wipes, toothbrushes/toothpaste, deodorant, Chapstick, nail care, hair ties, brushes/combs, shampoo, etc.) Travel-sized products are ideal. These are simple items that we often take for granted, but truly make a meaningul difference to those who are experiencing financial hardship.

The purses and personal care items can be delivered to the church any time up to the day of the event. We will have a Care Packing Party at a later date, where we will sort and prepare the donated toiletries into packages for those in need. Everyone is invited to participate. We have a special purpose for the purses and we will tell you about it at the party, so dig in your closets, and let go of some of those bags you no longer carry.

WHAT TO WEAR
We encourage everyone to wear their "Sunday Best" but it isn't required. And because it's always special when we do get to dress up, and to make this even more fun, why not wear a hat to complement your outfit? You can make one, buy one, or borrow one - it doesn't matter. Prizes will be given for the prettiest, most colorful, and most unique hats. This is usually the highlight of the event!

FOOD, FOOD, AND MORE FOOD!
This will be a potluck event...with a twist. Plan on bringing something that is most commonly served at an afternoon tea, such as finger sandwiches, salad, fruit, scones, deviled eggs, little cakes, chips, dips, etc. Be creative and surprise us with some yummy things to share with the group. If the food that is brought this year is anything like what we have had in years past, you will not go home hungry.
