October Preparations for FEST
Preparations have begun for FeST 2023, to be held Saturday, 02Dec.! All proceeds from FeST help people in need in Orange County and surrounding areas through donations to local non-profit organizations.
During October, a FeST table will be set up after each service so folks can sign up to donate items, place orders, or volunteer. This year, orders can be placed on-line on the parish website https://stmatthewshillsborough.org/feststore Call Rebecca Gallegly at 661-755-4428 if you need help placing an order.
Wreaths & Garland: Orders will be taken through 12November: on-line OR send an order form and check to the parish office.
Surprise Boxes: We need your help to fill the boxes. Share your talents and help fill FeST surprise boxes with small handmade, non-perishable soaps, candles, artwork, jams, canned goods, jewelry, knitted items, embroidery, lotions, etc. Sign-up sheets for donations are outside the parish administration office. Contact Theresa Kolb (tkolb53@att.net or 661-775-9606) with your questions or commitment!
Bake Sale: We’re starting to reach out to our bakers and cookie makers to see who can help with the array of delicious goodies we hope to sell: cakes, cookies, savories, coffee cakes, granola, anything home made and delectable. Please let us know how you can help. Items will need to be brought to church on December 1. email Lynn Hecht (lynnh77@yahoo.com) or Jane Clunie (jclunie73@gmail.com)
