Boutique helped building fund


Members of North Valley Baptist Church of Red Bluff held a Christmas boutique which added over $500 to its building fund, according to David Lamberson, pastor.
"Many members of the community have asked about the progress of our new activity building," Lamberson said. "This building will be used for youth projects and for the benefit of the young people of the area."
The building is being built on a pay-as-you-go basis, and is now "dry and tight," according to the builder.
Members provided a chili and cornbread lunch, craft items, baked goods, candy and more for the event as well as a white elephant table and building fund special items table. Even the children helped with assisting buyers and offering samples of mulled cider.
"It was a pleasant gathering of church friends and the community," said Anne Whiteman, coordinator of the annual event.
The church will be sending a team to Hong Kong, China for a Christmas mission event to aid Far East Evangelism Team for two weeks before and during Christmas.
The church is located at 345 David Ave. Information is available at 527-0543.
