Alternative Christmas Fair, 11/17/2024
Do you hear what I hear? It might just be those sleigh bells ringing because we’re about to deck the halls, proclaim joy to the world, and we might even go tell it on the mountain: It’s time for our annual bash – the St. Andrew Alternative Christmas Fair! And of course, you (and all your family and friends) are invited. Here’s how you can help:
-
Donate those household treasures ready for new homes to our silent auction.
-
Let Karen Ulack know if you can bake some goodies for the bake sale.
-
Tell Bill Renfro you can help with set-up the day before.
-
See Marie St. Claire if you can distribute flyers in the neighborhood.
-
Take some flyers from the narthex to hand out to family, friends and coworkers.
-
Create a “themed” gift basket for the silent auction such as: tea and coffee, movie night, New Mexico red and green, BBQ master, etc.
We have had a great track record raising fun and funds and this year, with your help, we will do it again. So save the date: Sunday, November 17, 2024, from 11 AM to 1 PM. And don’t worry, we’ll be serving a tasty lunch of green chile stew and tamales. See you there!
November Presbytidings
We are planning to publish the November Presbytidings on Thursday, Oct. 31, so the deadline for submissions will be Thursday, Oct. 24. Since November is busy with many church activities, we wanted to give you extra time to get your submissions in.
In Preparation for All Saints Day
If you have a name that you would like read in recognition of the saints on All Saints Day, please email Pastor Eric so that they can be included in the service on Nov. 3.
Birgitta's Hours
Due to the vagaries of rush-hour traffic, my commute from Rio Rancho is shorter and less stressful if I leave home earlier, which is no hardship since my pugs wake me at 4 am. Consequently, I am working 8 am - 2 pm on most days. -Birgitta
