She encounters an old woman, a blind man, a beggar and a prince.With each she exchanges cherished gifts, and finally gives the prince's crown to the baby Jesus. The prince encourages her to also give the "insignificant" carving of a lamb. The bells once again rang.

Alternative Gift Market

     The Alternative Gift Market, the “alternative” to the commercialism of Christmas giving, was a success from many aspects. In spite of the cramped quarters due to the loss of McMillen Hall this year, most market segments exceeded 2005 proceeds. From many comments it seems hosting the event in the Gathering Place and the Parlor had many positive experiences. Families and individuals in our community and around the world will know of the generosity of AGM shoppers.
     Locally, agencies present added $2,111 for their ministries. Heifer Project realized $1780 in animal gifts and $674.80 through merchandise gifts.
     Alternative Gifts International will be supported with $2538 for global projects.
     Income of $3802 from Baksheesh Third World crafts will be enjoyed by their artisans around the world.
     More than 200 shoppers made more than 121 purchases.

Sundae Sunday September 10

There were many tables of information concerning the life of Carmichael Presbyterian Church and its many committees and groups for people to view, ask questions and converse. Especially enticing were the toppings available at each table to put on the bowls of ice cream, which were rapidly picked up in the Gathering Place. Thanks to Phyllis Brewer and her handy camera, here are a few photos of the event.
