DOLLARS FOR MISSIONS The LWML thanks Pat S., a former GSLC member, who embroidered a queen size quilt and donated it to us to raise money for our mission work. Thanks to Karen M. who also helped with it and had it hand quilted. The quilt is on display downstairs in the fellowship hall. Your name along with a dollar donation will give you one (ten with a $5.00 donation) possibility of owning this beautiful quilt.
THROUGH THE BIBLE IN A YEAR In the narthex are sign up sheets for the two Bibles that can be used for reading through the Bible in a year starting the 1st of October. One includes a devotion for each day’s reading as well as “insight” information about Biblical times. Its cost is $17.00. The other choice is a child’s version, so they too can join in reading through the Bible. Its cost is $20.00. For those using their own Bibles there is a daily reading guide available on the narthex round table.

PRAYER BEARS are in the sanctuary pews and available to be signed out (notebook in narthex) and given to anyone that needs God’s love, comfort, and peace. We have had reports and words of thanks from folks being blessed by this outreach ministry.
