Advent Fair
Wait! It's not winter yet! However...it is not too early to start planning! Redeemer's Advent Fair is on Wednesday, December 4. An invitation is open to individuals or groups to host an Advent Fair craft table! This is a multi-generational event, so the craft/ornament should be easy to make in 5-10 minutes and appropriate for all ages. We only have room for a few tables, so get your bid in early! Contact Mary Gregory or a member of the CYF team with your name(s) and craft idea.

Trunk or Treat
