For Liberty Girls today we'll be celebrating Santa Lucia day which is like Swedish Christmas. Please wear all white (or as much as you can) as part of the candle ceremony.
Santa Lucia is special to the Swedish because when she was married she gave her whole dowry to the poor. The groom shunned her for this but she has been venerated ever since for her charity in a celebration each December 13 in Scandinavian countries.
** Also, as this is a new semester please bring $5 for each girl to cover the next few activities.
Thank you and see you there!
