“Many hands make light work”
The quote above is never more true than during Snowflake Fair season! For 29 years our Snowflake Fair has been one of C.C.P.'s biggest events and this year is shaping up to be our biggest yet!
Did you know...
-
Last year our Snowflake Fair raised $3400. To put this in perspective, this is enough to cover nearly an entire month's worth of bills. In one six hour day we were able raise enough money to cover our electric bill to keep our lights on, our gas bill to keep our heat on and quite few other bills that come with the day to day running of our church.
-
Last year we had 350 people come through our doors. That was 350 opportunities for us to reach out our community and show them what an active, vibrant church we are and invite them to come see us on a Sunday morning.
With 27 vendors,a bake sale, a silent auction, Santa selfies, children's games, make & take ornaments, door prizes, and a historical display we have A LOT going on and it will take "all hands on deck" to make this event a success. If everyone were to "donate" ONE HOUR of their time on Saturday all of our volunteer slots would be filled. The 3 T's of Stewardship are Time, Talent & Treasure... We are asking you to prayerfully consider donating your TIME on November 9th.
Please use the sign-up sheets to see which of our tables you would like to sign up for. We have many and you can sign up for more than one. You will definitely not be bored that day!
If you have any questions, please let me know. Thank you in advance for your help to make our Snowflake Fair incredible!
