Blessed Sacrament Seniors Event Champagne, Chocolate, Icons and Manuscripts In the Afternoon with Joyce Johnson
Monday, May 5, 2 -3:30 pm.
Parishioner Joyce Johnson is providing a wonderful opportunity for those who missed the January showing of Joyce’s beautiful crèches and icons. In addition to icons, Joyce will be displaying her collections of old (about 300 years) Hebrew scrolls of the Torah AND her 13-15th Century Christian manuscript leaves (Book of Hours, Bible, etc.) We will once again offer options on getting there: carpools, walking (less than 1⁄2 mile) or drive on your own. Walkers will step off from the parking lot of the apartment building next to the church at 1:45 and walk to Joyce’s house at 5518 Western Ave (less than 1/2 mile). Carpoolers will meet at the same place and also depart at 1:45. Alternatively, you can meet us there (5518 Western Ave, Chevy Chase, MD). If you are driving, please save the parking spaces in the driveway for carpoolers and those who have ambulatory issues. Refreshments: Assorted homemade chocolate treats and a few savories accompanied by sparklings: water, wine, apple juice and ginger ale. It will be a sparkling event!
