Alternative Gift Market
"This church
rocks." "Thank you for letting
me be a part of this wonderful event."
"I had no idea we could host something like this too."
These were some of the random comments heard on November 4 at
the Alternative Gift Market. AGM gift giving is a real "alternative" to
the commercialism of Christmas that surrounds us. An additional
benefit is the education and awareness of the needs of others
that we receive . . . as well as the outreach from each of the
agencies involved. The total received by the involved agencies
from this event was $13,161.
PW MARKET
On Saturday, October 6, The Presbyterian Women held
