Christmas Craft Fair Request

September 11, 2026

Saturday 7th November

Hello everyone, I promised an update on the Christmas Craft Fair after Easter—and how quickly that time has flown!


I’ve been genuinely encouraged by the enthusiasm from so many of you, with a number of stalls already confirmed and several kind offers to help on the day, for which I’m very grateful. I’m also reaching out to crafters beyond our parish community to ensure we have a wide variety of crafts available, and I’ll be attending a local craft fair next month to gather ideas and inspiration for our own event.


Several people have offered to make items but would prefer not to run a stall, so if you would like to host a stall but don’t have crafts to sell, please do get in touch—I’d be very happy to match you up. We are also planning a raffle during the fair, so donations of prizes would be most welcome; we already have a generous offer of a homemade Christmas cake to get us started.


I will share further updates over the summer, and in early September I’ll arrange a meeting so we can put a more detailed plan in place. Thank you again to everyone who has been in touch and for the enthusiasm shown in helping make this a successful event for our parish.


For any queries, please contact us via the parish office.

October is the month of the Holy Rosary. The Rosary is a beautiful and very powerful prayer, in which we meditate on the lives of Jesus and Mary, getting to know them and love them better. Why not consider praying even just one decade each day? Find out more on the Archdiocese website: rcadc.org/october-month-of-the-rosary .

To donate, use the Missio envelopes, call 020 7821 9755 (office hours) or visit missio.org.uk/wmsdonate to give a gift, set up a Direct Debit and Gift Aid your donation if possible.
