Give Willingly

We give as we are moved by the Holy Spirit. We have been prepared to give ourselves. We give out time, talents, and resources freely.

Summer Fair July 18 

Congratulations and Thanks to the many willing workers who helped set up the Undercroft! Fair sorting has begun! Donations may be delivered between the hours of 9:00 and noon Monday through Friday. Guidelines: Items should be clean and in good shape. The "NO" items include televisions, computers, mattresses, pillows, curtains, skis, and oversized furniture. Thanks to Christy Parker for the great photos of 'moving day'. To see more action shots of our worker bees, visit the All Saints website

 


 

Fair Angels: To help underwrite the expenses of the Fair, we look to those who are willing to support this primary fund raiser for the Church. Please note on your check "Fair Angels". Many thanks to all!

What's in Your Basket?

Raffle Baskets will again be a part of the Summer Fair. Please contact Jan Smith or Carolyn Sundquist if you would be able to donate a basket or if you need some ideas. There will also be sign-up sheets on the board in the undercroft. In order to start selling raffle tickets before the fair it would be helpful to have the baskets as soon as possible - by 6/28 if possible. Many thanks to those who gave so generously in previous years!
