 Last weekend saw a very successful Vintage Fair! While more than $15,800 was raised – it was never just about the money! Hundreds of people who would never come near a church, came to buy, see, enjoy; and drink coffee and tea and connect with those at the church. 
 
We had some lovely conversations, with young Mums who we directed towards Little Sheep, and others who were looking to find a place where they could worship and feel comfortable.
 
The Tea Room was a huge hit!! So much yummy food, and the sun was shining making the sunroom a popular place to stop and chat. The tearoom raised just over $2,200 an outstanding result.
 
In its first appearance the Bric a Brac made for some good bargain spotting. Lovely to see some of the goods parishioners had donated going to great new homes … and it raised closed to $3,300. Also an excellent result.
 
Once more Jennifer and her team did a simply amazing job in the clothing sphere. Great deals and great clothes. 
 
Altogether a fabulous community event with lots of contacts made and friendships established! Needless to say, Nungalinya are very happy with the result!
