Fair Trade in the General Convention Exhibit Hall

The General Convention Exhibit Hall is a World Market Place. Between booths and tables informing and engaging us in a variety of ministries, outfitting liturgical ministers and filling home and church libraries with new books, there are many vendors bringing items crafted by village artists from around the world, and being sold at fair trade standards. The money from these sales goes back into communities, and artists are paid fairly and justly for their work.
