You may choose to purchase a gift and that's fine. The idea is for everyone to come for fun and laughter without having to go out to shop for a gift. Let's keep the value of the gifts around $15.00-20.00. Just simply choose your regift, wrap it and come ready eat and have some girl time. Lunch is provided. Please RSVP, so that we know how much to prepare.
  • No prayer on Thursday night, see you at 7pm next Thursday night.
