The Holiday Fair has been a regular event at the Fellowship for many years, but unfortunately all we have are these three photos from 2017. If you’ve been involved in the Holiday Fair (previously known as the “Holiday Bazaar”) and have any photos, or any stories to tell, please let us know! Until then, enjoy these photos from the Holiday “Bazaar” of 2017.
