A Christmas Cookie Walk will be held on Saturday, December 8th, from 8 a.m. until 11 a.m. in the family room of the Fellowship Center of Lincoln Christian Church. Sponsored by the Harvest of Talents for World Hunger Ministry, the Walk will feature homemade traditional holiday and bar cookies. Cookies will be available for purchase by the pound or arranged on decorative plates. Georgia Vinson, Cookie Walk Chairperson, recommends taking them home for weekend entertaining or popping them in your freezer to prepare yourself for Christmas parties and last minute holiday guests.
Cookie shoppers are invited to enter the Fellowship Center through the North canopy parking lot door.

All proceeds from the Christmas Cookie Walk will become a part of the 2013 Harvest of Talents for World Hunger and will be channeled through International Disaster Emergency Service to meet hunger needs worldwide.
Anyone having questions may contact Georgia Vinson @ 732-9069.
