Webster-RockHill Ministries “Empty Bowl” Fundraiser: 4-7 p.m., November 4, 2012

First Congregational Church of Webster Groves

Though there are always empty bowls in homes across America and even in our communities, the “Empty Bowls” Fundraiser seeks to alleviate this problem locally.  For $15 per person, share a simple soup/bread dinner, and support the work of Webster-Rock Hill Ministries.

Take home your own hand-crafted bowl as a keepsake of your effort with WRHM to fill other empty bowls throughout our local communities.  This biennial fundraiser for WRHM recruits local artists, crafts persons, and art students to create unique bowls and bowl-shaped works. Persons dining select from the works available. Arrive early for the best selection. All food is prepared and donated by local eateries. Local musicians provide dinner music.
