Living Gift Market: Sunday November 22

Join us from noon to 2 pm on Sunday, November 22, when St. John’s Mission Ministry Team hosts its annual Living Gift Market in McPhail Hall. A St. John’s tradition since 1989, the Market serves as a forum to help vulnerable populations and promote sustainability around the world. From wooden games and sweaters to Christmas cards and coffee, holiday shoppers will certainly find the perfect gift for that special someone.
