Hosted at St. Athanasius, 300 Haverhill St, Reading
2025 Faire Dates:
Friday, November 21, 4 PM - 8 PM
Saturday, November 22, 10 AM - 2 PM
It’s that busy, happy time of year when Christ the King Parish comes together for the wider community. The Faire is our way of performing good works as evidence of our faith and as our response to God’s grace. Our two-day event raises important funds for our parish work and local outreach. It gives parishioners an opportunity for Catholic community and action. And, if all that weren’t enough, we give away beautiful goods and gifts to families in need at what can be a particularly difficult time of year.
A long running, TV ad for a local men’s store says, “You’re going to like the way
you look.” We say, “Come and join us. You’re going to love the way you
feel.”
Reach out to us to volunteer, even just an hour or two, for donations, and
to offer ideas.
Email us at: [email protected] or
call Joanne Fitzpatrick directly at 617-285-0037.

The Faire Bakery would love to sell your favorite cakes, cookies, cupcakes, bars and any other cherished recipe you’d love to make. Every year our attendance grows so our need for wonderful baked goods increases as well.
Health code regulations require that all baked goods must include a list of all ingredients.
Baked goods received without the ingredients listed cannot be sold.
Cookies, bars and other small baked goods: Please package for individual sale in clear wrap or plastic bags (no aluminum foil)
