United Church Fall Events

(Page 9)
Submitted by Karen Milne, Office Co-ordinator
Three years ago the United Church In The Valley had access to a lot of used books. One of our mandates is to serve our community and since there were no used book sales offered – we decided to start one. It has become extremely popular. People can recycle their old books and pick up new ones at bargain prices. There's always a wide selection available from novels and children's books to non-fiction and even some specialty books. Monies raised are used to support the many programs which operate out of the church such as Literacy for Life, the Food Bank, Scouting and Guiding groups and the local Jack Racket event.
When: Friday, September 24th from 2:00 to 7:00pm and Saturday, September 25th from 9:30am to 4:00pm.
Where: Lewis Memorial United Church, 125 Royal Avenue, Turner Valley (across from the school)
Sandwiches, muffins & coffee are available for sale on Saturday.
We're also hosting an Arts & Antiques Autumn Lunch Buffet on September 24th from 11:00 am to 1:30pm. The fabric art is crafted by the talented Stichery Group at our church. Come and enjoy a delicious lunch. We have a feast for the eyes as well…. watercolours, fabric arts, antiques and quilts of today and yesterday. RSVP for groups of 6 or more to the office 403-933-4114 or Pearl 403-931-3493 or email:
