Come and help needy persons around the world, while enjoying the uplifting fellowship offered by a variety of women of all ages! Work includes quilting, knotting comforters or sewing on a sewing machine. Knotting comforters is easy to do and you can work at your own speed. If you do not know how, we will be glad to show you. You are welcome to come for the entire time or just a few hours as it suits you. This month we will share a fellowship meal together, so please bring a hot or cold dish to share with the group. Place settings and drink are provided. The project for Sewing Circle this month is comforters and blankets. A displaced woman in Afghanistan who received a warm, colorful comforter wrote I dont know how to thank those who send these beautiful blankets, but I can say that they have saved my childrens lives since the tent gets very cold at night. If you enjoy sewing you are invited to make a comforter that MCC will distribute to someone in need somewhere in the world. Purchased blankets in twin or full size can also be used. Comforter tops are also welcome and will be completed by Sewing Circle. Blankets and comforters/tops can be brought to the church and Sewing Circle will see that they get to MCC. Thank You! Jan. 20, Fri.-Our next Coffee House for a Cause will be held at 7 p.m. We will be assembling parachutes for Voice of the Martyrs to be dropped over Columbia.
