It’s that time again! The annual Not Your Mother’s Church Bazaar, now in our 5th year, the Church of the Good Shepherd is holding another holiday fundraising event on Saturday, December 2nd. We are bringing back popular offerings from members and friends, Barre artists Beth Mueller www.bethmueller.com and Anne Davis www.annemadecards.com, who are contributing items from their studios to this sale to benefit the work of the Church of the Good Shepherd. More crafters will be present and selling!
We have local home-made pies for sale. They sell out every year! Live local music and lunch will be served.
Also returning is our super Silent Auction filled with local business and artist offerings. We feature food and retail gift certificates, gift baskets, skiing and outdoor activity tickets, and local art and crafts.
Proceeds from the Bazaar will help fund our program like the Community Meals Program. Last year, the Good Shepherd served over 7,000 meals to folks at weekly breakfasts on Monday and Thursday mornings as well as monthly meals sent directly to the Good Samaritan Haven.
Funds also benefit a new program we’re getting off the ground: Welcome Home Kits. These are boxes filled with basic kitchen utensils, pots and pans, mixing bowls plus all sorts of kitchen implements for folks moving into stable housing. We are hoping to have boxes ready in early 2018.
Stop by the Church of the Good Shepherd, 39 Washington Street, Barre. Saturday, December 2, 10-4. For more information, call 476-3929.
