The Women of St. Margaret’s invite you to join them for a KNIT-A-THON
Saturday, November 17, 2018
8am to 8pm
St. Margaret’s Episcopal Church, 95 Court St., Belfast
All proceeds will be benefit the Belfast Soup Kitchen. Donations of non perishable food items are also accepted.
How does it work?
Participants should complete the donation/sponsor form prior to the event. The idea is to get sponsors to make flat donations, or donate based on the amount of hours the participant will be knitting. For example, a sponsor may give $5.00, or offer to pay the knitter $2.00 per hour. Any and all are welcome, and while knitting will be the focus, other fiber artists are more than welcome to join the event.

Scones with clotted cream, little cucumber sandwiches, a pot of hot tea and more …… St. Margaret’s Tea & Bake Sale
A true English High Tea will be served at St. Margaret’s Harvest Tea and Bake Sale on Saturday, November 3 from 11 to 2. This signature event of the Women of St. Margaret’s is already known to many in the parish and local area, but if you haven’t tried it you must! Tell your friends and neighbors! Invite a friend, your daughter, your mother, your husband and come and relax at a table set with lovely china.
Beside the tea, there is a bake sale , the Jewelry Boutique – with lovingly refurbished jewelry that is perfect to gift or keep for yourself! and a Silent Auction offering a variety of items and gift certificates.
All funds raised will benefit the Women of St. Margaret’s Outreach Mission.
The next corridor exhibit for September and October will feature the paintings of our supply priest Steve Smith. In addition to viewing the show on Sundays, it will be open to the public on Tuesday mornings from 9am to noon. Steve has written:
“Painting has been a wonderful gift to me in this season of life, a solace in the midst of the crazy times in which we are living. Painting continues to offer ever new and surprising ways to ground myself in the glory and mystery of creation. In time, it has become my joy.”
St. Margaret’s was very well represented at Saturday’s March in Belfast where it is estimated 750 to 1000 people participated.
