What a night!

Feet tapping, hands clapping

and people singing!

On November 22, 2008 the Cranbrook United Church hosted a coffeehouse concert featuring Steven Palmer. This is the first of our “Coffeehouse Series.” The huge success of this event was due to the support of the community of Cranbrook working together for a common cause – the extreme weather women’s shelter. All told over $500 was raised from people attending, gifts marked as a donation and the generous donation from Steven Palmer of part of the sales from all CD’s along with the hard work of the people of Cranbrook United Church shining with their enthusiasm, organization and hard work.

Much credit needs to go the both the worship committee, the congregational care committee for doing so much of the preparation for this event. A special thanks for the “Sandman Inn” for their generous donation of accommodation for our performer.

Cranbrook United Church would like to thank the community of Cranbrook for working together to support our fundraiser, the Extreme Weather Women’s Shelter, and Steven Palmer for his performance and donation of 25% of all the CD sales.
