About the Bazaar
The Martin Luther Church Bazaar is run by volunteers who love to create for a cause. In the past, the Bazaar has been a 1-day event hosted in person at the Martin Luther Church Toronto in the beginning of December.
This event offers the congregation and members of the neighbourhood community a chance to socialize. Historically, the proceeds have gone to such initiatives as the church’s refugee sponsorship program (13 people have received assistance in coming to Canada) as well as our sister organization, the Martin Luther Daycare. Even in these unprecedented times, the church continues to serve the community through missions such as our biweekly soup kitchen and distributing free masks. Just as the pandemic has allowed us to rethink the way we serve, this year, Covid-19 pandemic has made us re-imagine how we can keep the spirit of the Bazaar alive virtually!
We are very excited to invite you to participate in our first-ever Martin Luther Church Spring Bazaar Online Marketplace! The items offered for sale are donated by the congregation or friends of the church, and your purchase will help us to continue our work in serving and inspiring our community! We sincerely thank all of our generous craftspeople and donors for their valuable contributions of time, effort and supplies. And to all those who visit our website, we hope you enjoy shopping and thank you for your support!
Back story:
The last year, 2020, has been challenging, however, it has given us the opportunity to dramatically reconsider how we think about faith, how we worship, and how we connect with others in different ways. With this in mind, we are please to offer an online Spring Bazaar.
We had 13 craftspeople offer their delightful products in categories such as: Food, Beauty, Art, Décor, Stitch, Experience, Easter and Church Merchandise. Looking for Easter gifts? You will find handmade goats milk soap, colourful knitted socks, flower jewellery, homemade jams, fine art, woodworking, artisan cookies, and for those who are looking for adventure you may want to go on a guided bike tour this summer!
All items were created and donated by church members for this fundraiser, and all proceeds go directly to the church! Just think: you make a generous donation to the church bazaar, and in return you get some beautiful, thoughtful and locally produced items in exchange for your generous donation! How amazing is that?
Please note, however, that your purchases do not count as contributions on your annual tax receipt.
