We would like to thank the congregation for supporting our quilting ministry. This year’s raffle and quilt sale was a big success and we received sufficient funds to purchase batting, thread, and other supplies for the coming year.

We would also like to thank Men in Mission for assistance in moving the quilts from Keever into the Sanctuary and again Monday back from the Sanctuary upstairs to our quilt closets in Keever Hall.

The remaining quilts will be donated to the YWCA Grandparents raising grandchildren program for Christmas gifts – 20 to their Whiteville location and 12 Christmas quilts to the Wilmington group.We will also be donating to Family Promise and A Safe Place to Go as they request and to Sleep in Heavenly Peace children receiving new beds.

Currently we are accepting donations of lightly used sheets and pillow cases, and table linens for backings for the quilts. You may leave the donations in Keever Hall next to the quilter’s closets, marked For Quilters.

Again, thank you and it is a blessing to provide these beautiful quilts to those in need,

Leann Grossman and the quilting group of now 14 members
