Our Gingerbread Fair is typically held the first Saturday in December.

This year, the GINGERBREAD FAIR ON December 5, 2020 WILL BE A PRESALE PICKUP EVENT ONLY. 

​
You should have received a Presale Pick Up Order Form with this year's Holiday Newsletter, to use to reserve your Holiday items.  If you cannot or don't want to submit an order please consider sending a donation to keep the lights on at the church to see us through this crazy year.

2020 Annual Handmade Quilt Raffle

A handmade crib sized quilt had been donated for our Quilt Raffle this year. This quilt is 38" x 47" and is pink, green, cream and blue color -- it is pieced in traditional but oversized log cabin style squares, with some overstitching and embroidered embellishments.  It is backed with a green on cream small floral print. 

We have enclosed four blank tickets with our 2020 Holiday Newsletter.  Chances are $3 for one ticket, and $10 for four tickets.  Please fill out and mail the ticket stubs to our church at P.O. Box 509 Hubbardston, MA 01452 to arrive before December 4, 2020. The winner will be drawn at the close of the PRESALE PICK UP EVENT on December 5, 2020. If you did not receive our Newsletter and/or blank tickets and would like to participate, please send your entry fee with your name, address, phone number where we can reach you, as well as an email address, and mention the fee is for the 2020 Annual Quilt Raffle.  

Here is a picture of the crib sized quilt up for raffle this year.

​Background on our over 60 year old Gingerbread Fair 


For over 60 years, our church has hosted this, one of our most successful fundraising annual events.  The proceeds are used to maintain our historic building, promote our church events--our contributions to the community, in spirit, humanitarian and educational needs, and provide a minister.

Our traditional holiday tables bring new life to long forgotten New England crafts and feature our handmade laurel wreaths; wooden slab memorial boxes; berry bowls/terrariums; natural garlands; knitted hats, scarves and mittens; homemade jams and jellies; hand packed spices for your Holiday cooking needs; homemade candy; and a variety of fine baked goods including pies and Finnish coffee bread.  The coffee bread sells out fast.  

Ticket and silent auctions include attractive gifts, tickets for bowling or the movies, gift certificates for services or to area restaurants, passes to museums, golfing, favorite attractions and themed gift baskets. Raffle tickets will be available for a handmade Country Quilt and a special Holiday Raffle.   These items are donated by members, and generous businesses in our area (Thank you!) 
​

Come celebrate the season with us and enjoy the wonderful offerings at the Gingerbread Fair.0
