2023 Holiday Faire, Nov. 11

2023 Holiday Faire, Nov. 11

Our annual Holiday Faire is coming up soon! The members of Crawford Memorial United Methodist Church are hard at work preparing for this year’s Holiday Faire, to be held Saturday, November 11, from 8:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Our home-made apple pies fill our freezer. Our crafters have been knitting, crocheting, and sewing handmade treasures to sell all year. Our bakers and soup makers are getting ready to fill our baked goods table and snack bar, so you’ll have plenty of tasty options if you get hungry while shopping. Our White Elephant and Book Sale tables will soon be groaning with treasures. Plus the jewelry table and Christmas Room! See you on the 11th!

Jaws

Jaws

This week’s monsters are real—that is, they are (or were) real creatures. What they have in common is their tendency to kill, and often eat, human beings. They are the apex predators of our world. Many are already extinct, and more are critically endangered. Can we learn to share a planet with creatures who see humans as prey? What happens if we don’t? What does the Bible have to say about it?
