NEW THIS YEAR: OUR FIRST ARABIC TEA CEREMONY AND OFFERING OF GREEK WINE AND OLIVE OIL  

ARABIC TEA CEREMONY

Don't miss this fun and educational piece of our Festival.  Anne Davies who has lived and worked in the Middle East for much of her life will be a special Guest presenter.  She will share with us the traditional hands on Arabic Tea Ceremony and also have time available to share her experiences working with refugees and much more. 

As of this writing, she will be presenting at 1:45 pm / 2:15 pm / 2:45 pm, but check the schedule handout when you get your tickets.

GREEK WINE AND OLIVE OIL

A big Thank you this year to "That Foreign Place" gift shop located in downtown La Crosse (107 3rd Street S.). They are bringing their wines and olive oils from Greece.  Take home a bottle of wine or some Greek Olive oil.  Totally relax… enjoy the ambiance and sip on a glass of wine from Greece as you watch the Maritza Band from Winona play their ethnic tunes. 

Better yet, get up and dance!

 

St. Elias is a small church that relies heavily on the generous donations

and regular contributions of our parish members, friends and those who have historical ties to the church. A sincere thank you for any support you can offer for the well-being and long term survival of St. Elias.

May God be with you!
