HUNTINGTON – The First Congregational Church of Huntington (Norwich Hill) welcomes the public to its annual Christmas Bazaar on Saturday, October 27 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 6 Searle Road, Huntington.
“This time of year is always a flurry of activity as the church prepares for the Annual Christmas Bazaar. Crafts are being finished, baskets are being filled, menu for the Café is being finalized in hopes that everyone who comes will have the opportunity to find just the right thing for that someone special on their Christmas list,” said church pastor Carol Smith.
Featured items ready for gift-giving include beautiful baskets filled with goodies for adults, children and pets; hand-made crafts and ornaments, stitched and knitted wearables. An array of made-from-scratch pies, cookies, squares jams and relishes plus baked beans and French meat pies will be on sale.
The Christmas Café will serve coffee, donuts and cider; soup, chili, sandwiches, pie and beverages. There will be a 50/50 Raffle, Silent auction and White Elephant table.
The Christmas Bazaar, sponsored by the Ladies Aid, helps to raise money for the church and its missions, including the Huntington Food Pantry, area homeless shelters, and support of a Native American sister church in North Dakota.
