Redeemer’s Mission Outreach Committee needs your help to sponsor two tables at our HOLIDAY SALE on Saturday, November 22. If you are an artist or crafter but did not produce enough items to have your own table, please consider donating an item or two to our Handmade Crafts Table. Back by popular demand, we will also collect items for our “Guilt Free Re-Gift” table. If you were given a gift that was a duplicate or just not your style, please consider donating it without guilt. All proceeds from these tables will go toward our sponsorship of Marvin, a student at El Hogar. Questions? Contact Carolyn Martin.
