Coinciding with the town’s Christmas Walk festivities, the Unitarian Universalist Society of Geneva will present its 26th annual Cookie Walk from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Friday, Dec. 5. Cookie sales raise money to support the work of the church and the social justice programs it sponsors, including a youth trip to a Habitat for Humanity home-building site and donations to local nonprofit organizations such as Lazarus House homeless shelter and the Northern Illinois Food Bank.

As customers enter the church at Second and James streets, they are given a box to fill. They walk along tables filled with 400 to 500 dozen homemade cookies of all kinds and can mix and match. Each box holds one to two dozen cookies and costs $13.

“This is the ninth year I’ve been involved with the Cookie Walk and every year we have people lined up outside well before 4:30 p.m.” said Elba Karim, co-chair.

“We’ve seen the baking for Cookie Walk become a cherished family tradition for several of our members,” said the Rev. Dr. Lindsay Bates, senior minister. “It’s great fun for everyone involved.”

Early arrival is suggested.
