The Women's Ministry at New Hope Church (Canton) held a "Mini Spa Retreat" in mimicking the Women's Retreat spa. We had peppermint foot massages, manicures, parrafin hand therapy, body massages (done by massage school students), note card and body scrub crafts, dinner and a silent auction. It was very successfully attended, a good outreach and we made enough money to help reduce the price of the Women's Retreat for our ladies.

The Hillsdale WMI has had great success with several bake sales during peak seasons - Christmas, Easter, etc. - and during their Scrapbooking event in February.  Also, they have set up a booth in the foyer to catch people as they walk out of service, and this has worked out well too.
