Out 40th annual Holly Fair will be on Saturday, December 6th, 2025! This event is a really special tradition amongst our parishioners and many others in the Pitman community.

Here are some of the great things we offer at the Holly Fair:

• Breakfast sandwiches and coffee provided by local businesses
• Sit-down service lunch with homemade sandwiches, soups, and chilis– also available for takeout!
• Craft show featuring vendors from Pitman and surrounding communities, as well as from our own parish
• Saint Nick Shop — activities for kids including Spin Art, friendship bracelet making, and cookie/cupcake decorating (all free of charge!)
• A bake shop selling homemade cookies, cakes, pies, and other desserts, to enjoy there or to bring home for family and friends
• Grandma’s Attic, our always popular dollar (and more-than-a-dollar) store
• Family holiday photo-op — photoshoot featuring Santa Claus and a holiday backdrop
• Christmas caroling performances by our Adult Choir
• Special appearances by Saint Nick!

While you’re visiting, if you are interested in learning more about our church, be sure to stop by our Good Shepherd table in the parish hall or explore through one of our church tours.
