S.A.G.E SISTERS
RITES OF PASSAGE AND COMMITMENT CEREMONY
What is S.A.G.E. Sisters all about?
Every woman is a S.A.G,E . Whether you are budding, flowering or seasoning, you have the properties of a S.A.G.E.
S.A.G.E Sisters take the next generation of women under their wings and walks with them into womanhood and throughout life. They give them wisdom to navigate this life. Love to endure hardships and courage to keep going. There is something special that happens when a girl passes from childhood to womanhood. This is the time when she needs the strength of a community of women who are willing to tell her the truth and show her love while doing it. Women knit the community together with the love that they have for one another. We believe that there needs to be a marker for this passage from child hood to womanhood. Something that you will not forget and something that your daughter will carry with her as she begins this new journey. As she becomes, a woman.
What we commit to do as a part of the S.A.G.E ceremony:
We will create a rite of passage and/or commitment ceremony especially designed for your young lady.
No two girls are alike. No two women walk the same path. For this reason our ceremonies are not generic. We tailor to fit your young lady. We create a ceremony designed with a path that is in keeping with who she is as a young lady and who you and she sees her becoming as a woman. She will receive a booklet especially designed for her. A commitment certificate for her and the two women that will commit to be her guide, shoulder, guiding hand, and mentor. Share words or wisdom to walk through this life with. Because we are a tea shop we will create a tea ceremony in keeping with the occasion.
