Monroe Congregational Church is gearing up for an exciting lineup of events this November and December. These gatherings aim to foster community spirit and provide enjoyable experiences for residents. Join us for an array of activities designed to bring joy and warmth during this festive season.
Bingo and Spaghetti Night: Fun for a Good Cause
On Saturday, November 21, the church will host a lively Bingo and Spaghetti Night at Wilton Hall, located at 34 Church St. The evening will kick off with dinner served from 5 to 6 p.m., followed by bingo games running from 6 to 8 p.m. Priced at $15 per individual or $40 per family, this ticket covers both the meal and five bingo cards, complete with chips. Proceeds from the event will support Project Warmth, a local initiative aimed at assisting those in need. Attendees can also look forward to exciting raffle baskets and game prizes, all generously contributed by local businesses and members of the church community.
Free Turkey Dinner: A Community Feast
The gathering continues with a Free Turkey Dinner scheduled for Sunday, November 22, from 4 to 6 p.m. The event’s promotional material emphasizes the importance of good food and community connection: “Fuel your fall with great food and community.” Everyone is welcome to attend—no registration or income requirements are necessary. Rev. Jennifer Gingras expressed the church’s commitment to unity, stating, “We think it’s really important to bring the community together, feed people, and help those in need.” This dinner is an excellent opportunity for families and individuals to come together, share a meal, and enjoy each other’s company without any barriers.
Victorian Christmas Fair: Celebrate the Season
As December approaches, the church will host its beloved Victorian Christmas Fair on Saturday, December 5, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. This festive event will transport attendees back in time with a variety of Victorian-themed offerings. Guests can indulge in traditional Victorian food, view handcrafted items from local artisans, and marvel at a miniature Victorian railroad display. Additionally, Father Christmas will be on site to share in the holiday cheer. This fair not only showcases holiday spirit but also serves as a platform for local businesses, fostering a sense of community during this cherished time of year.
In summary, Monroe Congregational Church is committed to creating meaningful connections within the community through these upcoming events. From the cheerful Bingo and Spaghetti Night to the Free Turkey Dinner and the enchanting Victorian Christmas Fair, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Mark your calendars, bring your family and friends, and be a part of these memorable occasions that aim to strengthen the bonds of community and celebrate the season of giving. We look forward to seeing you there!
