Calling All Cookie Bakers
The Cookie Nook at our Church Bazaar will sell over 125 dozen cookies on Bazaar Day. We need a lot of bakers to bake three dozen or more of your favorite cookies or bars. Please sign up by emailing Brenda Gammon at sadiesuejune@gmail.com or there will be a sign up sheet outside the Church Office. We need to know your name, email/phone#, type of cookie and how many. It helps to know what kind of cookies are coming in so that we can answer those who ask "what kind do you need?" Cookies should be delivered to the Cookie Nook (Room 4) no later than Friday noon, November 17th. It takes the Cookie Crew about 8 hours to package and display cookies on Friday. You may bring the cookies packaged in clear packs/plates of 6 or a dozen. We will label & price them. Gluten-Free cookies, Thanksgiving or Christmas cookies, fancy or plain...we'll take all types because we have never met a cookie we did not like! Thank you!
The Silent Auction Needs You!
We are looking for quality items or services for our Silent Auction Booth! Please look around and let us know what you can contribute. Items can be dropped off at the Church Office anytime—Thank you!
