Alternative Christmas Market
St. Andrew’s Alternative Gift Fair at Saint Andrew’s takes place on the first two Sundays of December! We’ll have items from Concern America that are made in Guatemala, Mexico and Colombia and provide health care, clean water, education and income generation to impoverished communities. We will also have soaps from Shima made in Navojoland and scented with native plants, which benefits teens and elderly. There will be the opportunity to donate to Episcopal Relief and Development in the name of a relative, and you’ll receive a Christmas card to give to them. Lastly, we’ll also have gift acknowledgement cards from United Thank Offering that you can send to friends or family members

 

St. Andrew’s Church also donates funds to the following organizations and encourages congregants to do so as well:

 

Episcopal Relief and Development (ERD) works with partners worldwide to alleviate hunger, create economic opportunities, respond to disasters, promote health and strengthen communities.

 

United Thank Offering (UTO) is a ministry of The Episcopal Church for the mission of the whole church. Congregants collect loose change in UTO’s “little blue boxes,” noticing the good things that happen each day, and giving thanks to God for those blessings.
