It’s holiday shopping time

Glynis Rogers, Susan Maclvor, and Mary Allen Yelverton (pictured, from left) are gearing up for the holiday season and the Hearts and Hands Holiday Market. The 39th annual shopping experience hosted by Memorial Drive United Women in Faith takes place Oct. 20-22 at Memorial Drive United Methodist Church (MDUMC). Shoppers will find Christmas treasures, unique gifts, stylish clothing, jewelry, and tasty treats from more than 70 vendors. Proceeds from market sales will support local outreach ministries for women and children. In addition to crossing gifts off your shopping list, guests can enjoy a silent auction, handcrafted creations from Mission Stitchers, and feast on boxed lunches and bake-sale treats. The Preview Party will be held on Oct. 20, 5:30-8 p.m., and open shopping days are Oct. 21, 10 a.m.-7 p.m., and Oct. 22, 10 a.m.-3 p.m. For more information about the event, volunteering, or purchasing Preview Party tickets, visit www.mdumc.org/heartsandhands.
