The annual Christmas boutique held at the Lutheran Church of the Resurrection was a success. Hundreds of shoppers helped themselves while helping others. All of the proceeds will be donated to missions.

Mrs. Shirley Holmes thanked everyone who supported the affair. The weekly workshops where many of the crafts, decorations and hand-knitted goods were created will begin again soon in preparation for next year's sale.
