Dominican Sisters Annual Mission Bazaar
The Dominican Sisters of Peace in Great Bend host their Annual Mission Bazaar on Saturday, November 14, 2015, from 7:00 am to 2:00 pm at 3600 Broadway in Great Bend, Kansas. With a morning coffee break available, soup and pie for lunch, hundreds of handcrafted and homemade items, a drawing for 20 prizes, unique gift theme baskets, and a silent auction, there is something for everyone. There is even a special drawing for a ring with small diamonds and emeralds! Come spend the day and enjoy the aroma and magic of this festive autumn, pre-holiday event! For more information, call 620-792-1232.
Arriving in central Kansas in 1902 to provide education and healthcare for the early settlers, the sisters relied on their own resources to pay for their ministries and for a Motherhouse where they could live. They began to sell hand-crafted and homemade items, along with a hot meal. Today, the tradition continues. Sisters, Dominican Associates, employees, family members, and friends work on sale items throughout the year. By the time the second Saturday in November arrives, there is such an array of goods that repeat customers line up to stream into the auditorium even before the doors open.
The Sisters are always in awe of the all people who join them in the work of making the bazaar a success People donate items for sale throughout the year, and people and volunteer youth are here to help the weekend of the bazaar with the baking, serving the meal, assisting customers, and speeding up the clean-up. The Dominican community appreciates their generous participation so much. For more information, call 620-792-1232.
