Christmas on Church Street

The Mattapoisett Congregational Church’s annual holiday fair will be held on Saturday, December 3 from 10 am – 2 pm in Reynard Hall at 27 Church Street in Mattapoisett. This year’s event will include homemade frozen foods, baked treats, handmade items, Christmas/holiday decorations to include greenery for wreaths as well as jewelry, silent auction items, a kids table and the addition of a hot soup luncheon.  All proceeds benefit the ministries of the Mattapoisett Congregational Church. 

            This year’s annual White Gifts Pageant will be part of the Sunday morning service on December 11 at 10 am. Since at least the 1930’s, Mattapoisett Congregational Church has celebrated the season of Advent with a White Gifts Pageant. After the retelling of the story of Jesus’ birth, donated gifts are brought to the manger. The gifts are wrapped in white paper so that no gift is fancier than the others, and all gifts no matter how modest are equally valued. This year we will be collecting gift cards from Target or Walmart in the amounts of $5, $10 or $25. The cards will be distributed to local families so that they can purchase Christmas gifts. If you wish to donate, please bring cards in white envelopes to the service on December 11.

            All are invited to both events.  For additional information, please contact the church office at 508-758-2671 or mattcongchurch@gmail.com.
