The 7th annual “Mission: Adoption Baby” event will be held on Saturday, Nov. 2 from 10 am – 1 pm at First Baptist Family Life Center Gym in Minden.

This event was born from a childhood memory that evolved into a “Mission Event” to help fund and bring Awareness to local adoption and foster care. Vendors donate their time and resources of handmade items of all types to the assistance of families who are in the process of adopting or fostering to adopt children AND to assist the local Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) for Children. ALL funds raised go directly to these families and CASA. Adoption can be very costly, depending on circumstances.

The event includes:

• Maker/handmade craft items of all kinds, including holiday and home décor, candles, leather works, bath bombs, dog treats, night lights, charcuterie boards, blankets, jewelry, and gifts galore
• A silent auction
• Bake/casserole sale
• Hot dog or jambalaya lunch
