The Birthday Gals Luncheon






What does the Bible say about Friends?

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble. Likewise, two people lying close together can keep each other warm. But how can one be warm alone? A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken. Ecclesiastes 4:9–12

On Tuesday, May 15, the St. Charles Parish Birthday Gals gathered for their monthly luncheon, at the Whitehorse Gift Emporium and Tea Room in St. Francois Xavier. Everyone enjoyed the scenic drive through the country side as well as a peek around the boutique which claims to be "Manitoba's Largest Gift Shop". The nineteen ladies enjoyed a lovely lunch in the sunny tea room with the enormous mural depicting some historic moments in the history of the area.


The St. Charles Birthday Gals have been celebrating each other's birthdays for over 18 years. The meetings are usually on the third Tuesday of the month with lunch beginning at 11:30 AM at various restaurants in the St. James area. Along with good food and pleasant conversation, there are several door prizes.


Next month is an exception to the rule with the date being Wednesday, June 20th (rather than Tuesday). We will be meeting at The Park Cafe in the Qualico Family Centre at Assiniboine Park. There is an open invitation to all ladies of St. Charles Parish as well as any of their friends or family members who would like to attend.


The July 17th gathering will be a Pot Luck at one of the lady's home. For further details, please contact Claire at 885-2724.
