St. Paul's Church in Carroll Gardens hosted a pie baking contest to celebrate its 175th anniversary, inviting community participation across all ages. The event included ten bakers who brought their creations for evaluation. Joan Bredthauer, junior warden, expressed a desire for the church to engage more with the community. The contest served as a fundraiser for local food pantries, showcasing the church's ongoing commitment to service. St. Paulâs rich history includes significant contributions during tough times, and current renovations and community events aim to continue fostering local connections.
The "entry fee" for contestants was a donation to the food pantry at St. Ann & the Holy Trinity Church, highlighting St. Paul's commitment to community service.
"We like to encourage the community to join us for things," said Joan Bredthauer, emphasizing the church's aim to become more visible and engaged with its neighbors.
