The event will take place from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the church, 4810 Elizabethtown Road, Manheim. “We have 45 vendors,” said Michelle Eakman, who is coordinating the vendor part of the show and will sell handmade scarves. “We have a lady who embroiders ever ything from towels to pillows. We have somebody who does wooden items. We’ve got vendors who make ornaments, goat soap, chocolate candies, bread, tumblers, essential oils. I also have some direct-sales people like Pampered Chef, Norwex and Mary Kay.” In addition to shopping, people can enjoy food to eat on-site or take to go. The menu will include chicken corn noodle soup, beef barbecue, hot dogs, desserts and drinks. Proceeds from the craft show will benefit church mission trips. “It benefits local, national and global missions,” said Gail Ruhl, who handles the food for the craft show and organizes the mission trips. “We’re doing two trips this year. One team in June will be going to West Virginia, and the team in July will be going to serve at Kairos House in Guatemala City, Guatemala.” Gail and her husband, Chuck, See Craft pg 8
