Families enjoyed what turned out to be a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Children enjoyed playing on the wonderful FPCNS playground, picking out new books to fill their bookshelves at home, watching a magician and balloon artist, eating grilled cheese at the MeltMobile and picking out goodies at the bake sale.

Parents enjoyed some early Christmas shopping at the Book Fair and were thrilled to be able to have silhouettes of their children made by renowned silhouette artist Deborah O’Connor. The event was a huge success and was made possible by the outstanding community created by the parents, staff, and church.
