Alternative Christmas Bazaar

The Alternative Christmas Bazaar began many years ago.  Presbyterian Women sought a way to put Christmas back into the giving of gifts. Money spent at ACB goes directly to third-world crafts-people, and to agencies that directly and effectively minister to those people who are most needy, those we are called as Christians to care for. What can you buy for someone who "has everything" ?? Find the perfect gift at the Alternative Christmas Bazaar!

The Alternative Christmas Bazaar is scheduled this year for Saturday November 13 (3-6 PM) and Sunday November 14 (9 PM - 1 PM) in Calvin Hall.
