Women of Grace Lutheran ChurchWilling Workers, Knit & Purl, Mission Haiti, Faith in Action:
Willing Workers do not meet on a regular basis during the summer. There are many tasks, including cutting squares, designing the quilts, and tying quilts. Some of which can be done at home. Watch for info on quilt work days. Knit & Purl meets the first & fourth Tuesdays of each month in the fireside room at 2:30pm. We knit baby blankets for Unity Point, prayer shawls for our members and friends, hats and mittens for the Christmas tree. If you don't know how to knit, this is your opportunity to learn. Hope you'll come and join us. Connie Gustafson Mission Haiti meets the second and third Tuesdays of each month in the upper level sewing room at 2:30 pm. Mission Haiti is gearing up for the new school year. We are so very close to our 2000+ school bags and will be sending them very soon. If your child is getting a new backpack this year, and their old one is in decent condition, we would welcome any donations of those. We are always needing t-shirts (adult- gently used) as once our commitment is finished for this year we start all over again for next year. It takes many hands to complete this goal and by the Grace of God we are blessed with many hands. We are looking for one or more people who would like to do some sewing on the machine at their own home at their leisure to help with completing the bags. If you work during the day and are unable to attend at 2:30 you can do this on your own time. Please pray about this.
