[MR] Paternoster Day at Pennsic

[Denise McMahon]

Fellow Prayer Bead Makers--

Tuesday, August 9th will be Paternoster Day on Artisans Row at  
Pennsic. I've been asked again to organize our tent and with that in  
mind, I was wondering if anyone in Atlantia would like to join us and  
display your creations or demonstrate how to make prayer beads, or how  
to make beads - basically anything having to do with Paternosters in  
period.

We get a tent, some chairs and some tables for the entire day from  
about 9 am to about 5 pm. You are welcome to teach one on one, or do  
small classes, or just sit with your display and answer the questions  
of the large number of people who come and visit.   Last year we had  
several lively discussions among the various artisans from three  
different kingdoms in the tent that proved both entertaining to  
ourselves and to those who were visiting. It was a lovely, if warm  
day, all around.

Paternoster Day was fairly popular last year and we are hoping to make  
it even more interesting this year.

If you are interested in joining us, please send me an email at gerkeeper at mac.com 
  and tell me what it is you would like to do and what size space you  
might need. This is so I know how many tables to arrange for us.

Thank you and I hope to hear from many of you!

If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of  
inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With  
this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and  
bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care  
of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a  
greater sense of calm.   - Dalai Lama
