Simple Traditions Can Still Be Beautiful! Teatim

Simple Traditions Can Still Be Beautiful!

Teatime is a treasured tradition in our home. Sometimes we pause it in the midst of change, but we always come back to it!

In this season of life I have teatime during nap time for my youngest! It lets my 3 year old and I be able to connect over a simple cup of tea and a treat! As you can see depending on the day the treat isn’t always homemade!

On Saint Days and holidays I try to make the tea themed with themed treats, books, and a craft!

So what does teatime look like?
Simply two cups of @yorkshiretea decaf tea, a treat, a stack of books, then a simple craft! Yesterday we were working on our letter A so we crafted a glitter glue A. Today we are making water colour apple trees.

We also play classical music. My 3 year old asked for music yesterday that had “pizazz”. It was so cute!

Is teatime actually peaceful?
Yes! My daughter loves it so it is a lovely moment in our day. I make sure to pick special books we only read then! Sometimes my youngest wakes up earlier and she joins us! Those times are a bit more busy but nothing that two bowls of water and a spoon can’t help!

Tomorrow we celebrate Christ The King Sunday! 👑

Tomorrow we celebrate Christ The King Sunday! 👑

Did you know Christ the King Sunday was added to the church calendar in 1925 AD!

So let us remember tomorrow and for all our days the Kingdom! Below I have shared a verse and an excerpt from a book on this topic:

Matthew 25:34 - 40 “Then the King will say to those at his right hand, ‘Come, O blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see thee hungry and feed thee, or thirsty and give thee drink? And when did we see thee a stranger and welcome thee, or naked and clothe thee? And when did we see thee sick or in prison and visit thee?’ And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me.’”

From To Dance with God by Gertrude Mueller Nelson:

“Voting with the right wing or cheering for the left wing is our attempt to create a kingdom outside of ourselves, but the kingdom we ultimately discover is “not of this world.””

Advent is a season of anticipation. A season to prepare our hearts for the arrival of Christ. To remember His arrival into this world and also prepare ourselves for his second coming!

This year advent begins on Sunday December 3rd which means there is still time to prepare!

What do I mean by prepare?
Prepare your heart! Get into the word of God, pray, and examine yourself.

Of course it is wonderful to use Advent books, resources, and wreaths. But it is not necessary!

So take this time between now and December 3rd to not only gather your supplies, but most importantly prepare your heart and home for this Advent season ❄️

“For outlandish creatures like us, on our way to a heart, a brain, and courage, Bethlehem is not the end of our journey but only the beginning - not home but the place through which we must pass if ever we are to reach home at last.”
~Frederick Buechner

🍂Celebrating November Feast Days!🍂

“In November, the earth is growing quiet. It is making its bed, a winter bed for flowers and small creatures. The bed is white and silent, and much life can hide beneath its blankets.”
~ Cynthia Rylant, In November

October 18th is the day in the liturgical calendar

October 18th is the day in the liturgical calendar that we celebrate St. Luke!

Why do we celebrate it on October 18th?

Because we celebrate it on the date that Emperor Constantine requested that St. Luke’s remains be transferred to lay with the remains of St. Andrew in 357AD.

Quick Feast facts:
1. Luke was mentioned three times in the Apostle Pauls letters. He describes him as “the beloved physician” and as his only companion in prison.
2. Traditionally it is said that Luke wrote his gospel in Greece.
3. The known date of Luke’s death is unknown, but it is traditionally said he died us Boeotia at the age of 84.

How We Are Celebrating:
This season we are more busy than usual so we are just reading Luke 10:1-9 and a poem by Malcolm Guite from his book Sounding The Seasons.

More Ideas:
Theme the day around the Bull in reference to the vision of heavenly beings revealed in the books of Ezekiel and Revelation. In the second century St. Irenaeus associated the beings with the 4 gospels. St. Luke being associated with the ox or the bull.

This is why throughout history we see St. Luke’s day associated with bull related customs.
