St. Mary’s Episcopal Church begins red door bakes
By John Glaze
June finds us beginning a new program at St. Mary’s Episcopal Church, namely RED DOOR BAKES, A New Kind of Bake Sale.
Following the model of St. Dunstan’s Episcopal Church in Auburn, Ala., who runs “St. Duns Buns,” we have developed a website where the baked goods being offered are listed (some with photos) as well as a description. Buyers may choose the items they want to purchase and then make a donation for the item and pay, then pick up the items on the designated date and time.
Having endured bake sales sitting at a rickety card table in front of a grocery store, laying out a multitude of baked goods and watching as people go by, trying to “not see you,” this program has no waste, as only the items ordered are produced. St. Mary’s has some adventurous and committed bakers and we want to share the deliciousness, while raising some funds for the endless projects which surface in an older church building.
The June Bake is now open and inviting you to have a look and hopefully find some goodies you just can’t pass up. Our website is www.reddoorbakes.weebly.com and we wish you yummy shopping.
