Christmas Cafe & Bake Shop

Christmasfest’s origins go back nearly to the founding of St Laurence.  A group of parishioners started making crafts to sell. This annual event, usually held the first Saturday in November, has grown into a warm and welcoming community affair.  The famous Christmasfest Café featuring breakfast burritos, cinnamon rolls,  and home-made soups is eagerly anticipated by the community.  The tradition of parishioners making crafts continues. Starting in 2023 Christmasfest changed to a new look!! We have continued this look for 2024 and we will have an enhanced Christmas Café and Bake Sale which will again be offering our famous traditional fresh soups but added to the event this year we plan to have home-made jams and jellies, a bakery with pies, cookies, breads, etc., and crafts made by our parishioners. We look forward to seeing old friends and making new ones at this event. Proceeds from Christmas Café and Bake Sale help support the operation of the Church and enable us to pursue our work in and for the community at large. The chairpersons for Christmas Café and Bake Sale are Beth Lincoln, Jeannette Auman, Judi Parker and Kate Washburn . Please see the church directory for contact information or call the parish administrator.

Christmas Café and Bake Sale will be held this year on Saturday November 2, 2024 from 9 am to 2 pm. Come and shop for your Christmas gifts and be sure to enjoy lunch with us in our new Christmas Café and Bake Sale.
