Wake up, wake up! It's Monday and time to put on the strength of the Lord's power to prepare for a new week. A little coffee made in retro pots won't hurt either! This creatively designed table was among my favorites at the Elkdale Baptist Ladies' Banquet Saturday night.
Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem for Passover was the theme of this tablescape at the Elkdale Baptist Ladies' Banquet Saturday night, and I knew it would be perfect for today's post on Palm Sunday.
The annual banquet at the convention center features an inspirational speaker, music and tablescapes with Bible verse themes.
Ever since Satan took the form of a serpent and persuaded Eve to eat the one fruit that God forbade, mankind has been succumbing to temptation after temptation after temptation! This tablescape was among those at the Elkdale Baptist Church Ladies' Banquet a couple of weeks ago, and I thought it was just so original and colorful! Now, while we traditionally think of an apple as the fruit Eve ate, all we are told in The Bible is that is was a fruit, and if Adam and Eve ate it, they would surely die. What tempts you?
Who can resist a chocolate fountain? The lucky ladies who sat at this table got to dip strawberries and pretzels into this fountain of flowing chocolate...PLUS eat M&Ms! What could be more wonderful? This table was among those at the Elkdale Baptist Church Ladies' Banquet this past weekend. Okay, I don't remember the Bible verse theme for this table, and I don't know if chocolate is mentioned in The Bible, but I'm sure the hostess worked it out...perhaps something about fountains of blessings!
There was a bit 'o green in this rabbit's garden at the Elkdale Baptist Church Ladies' Banquet Saturday night. Hmmm, I spy Easter eggs too, but I chose this springtime tablescape for the green glasses and cabbage-leaf plate. After all, this is St. Patrick's Day.
The annual banquet features Bible-verse table themes along with delicious food, door prizes and well-known Christian worship leaders. This year's speaker/singer/worship leader was Kim Bolton of Nashville, Tenn. (Click photo to view larger version.)To view the banquet album, click here.
