    The Christmas season begins at First Moravian Church’s annual Candle Tea. Find yourself back in time and experience an old-fashioned, 18th century Moravian Christmas. Experience fragrant beeswax candles being made in our Candle Hut, and then move on to the New Fellowship Hall where you will find our putz (a miniature Christmas scene), ladies trimming candles, Moravian stars, pottery, advent wreaths, chicken pies with gravy, gingerbread and other Moravian baked goods, crafts, artists and other special finds. Our Tavern offers a moment from the past where you will enjoy a large fireplace, lively music, Moravian coffee, lemonade and delicious Moravian sugar cake at no charge. Enjoy the beauty of a live nativity and traditional Moravian Brass Band as well as a variety of seasonal music. Many say this Candle Tea is the beginning of the holiday season. Please join us and make it a tradition for your family, too. For more information call 336-272-2196 or visit www.greensboromoravian.org.

        Candle Tea is my family's favorite way to start the Christmas season. It is so simple, beautiful, and meaningful.

        This event really gives you an opportunity to slow down and focus on the real meaning of Christmas.
