It was ladies night at Central High School on Tuesday for the Second Annual Mother and Daughter Tea themed Gems and Pearls Just us Girls. More than 500 hundred young ladies and women attended. The event is the brainchild of Principal Patricia Lambert. Its purpose is to strengthen the bonds between mothers and daughters as well as women in general. Minister Arlicia Albert from Antioch Baptist Church gave a rousing keynote speech. "We are fearfully and wonderfully made," Albert said. I emceed the program. It was a wonderful event! Thanks to everyone for their support!
The tea was awesome. The keynote speaker's one, two punch was right on time. If we are to save our young ladies, then we have a lot of work to do, but most of all, they need to love who they are. I applaud the ladies that helped put this all together, Ms. Hendrix, Ms. Alfred, Ms. Moye, Mrs. Thomas, Ms. Sherman, and Ms. Redeaux. The men really looked handsome in their black and white serving the ladies. A job well done.
