Christmas Fair Thank You!!!

We had such a great Christmas Fair this year! We thank all of our Heavenly Baker’s, our wonderful knitters and of course all of those parishioners who worked behind the scenes during the week who helped set up. All Those who donated new items for our auction and punch boards, those who made their own baskets and those who let us shop for them. Let’s not forget those who donated their attic treasures. We look forward to working with you next year. A special thank you to all the table Leaders for your hard work. ⁣ ⁣ A special Thank You to our Chair Person Joan Rudolph and Co-Chair Sandy Coluci for coordinating this event.
