Women's Fellowship

We will work out final details for VBS and if there is time work on quilts. All ladies are welcome!

21 ladies attended our Spring Garden Party Tea on Wednesday, May 16, 2012!

At our meeting on January 18, 2012, the following officers were elected: Mindy O. President; Lana L. Vice-President, and Sharon K. Secretary/Treasurer. We discussed plans and projects for the year and had some delicious refreshments and wonderful fellowship.

Projects we plan to work on (besides our lap quilts, chemo hats and masectomy pillows) include: collecting needed items to send to a Micronesian island, and compiling a church cookbook to celebrate our 170th anniversary in 2014.

Scheduled meeting dates for this year are:
Feb. 15, March 21, and April 18 - quilting/projects
May 16 - Ladies Spring Tea
June 20, special meeting to prepare for VBS
July 18, August 15 and September 19 - quilting/projects
October 17, special meeting to prepare for Turkey Dinner
In November will be the annual turkey dinner fundraiser (date to be determined)
In December we plan to have our Christmas Tea.

The Women's Fellowship meets on the 3rd Wednesday of each month from 6-8 p.m. Our on-going project is making lap-size quilts, chemo hats, masectomy pillows, etc. and donating them to nursing homes, shelters, hospitals, etc. You don't have to be an expert seamstress to participate!

Each year in November the Women's Fellowship hosts our traditional Annual Turkey Dinner (all "home cooked") along with a Bazaar and Quilt Raffle. This is a fund-raiser for the church and something the community really looks forward to. We raffle a hand-made quilt or large afghan and other prizes, such as handmade rugs and afghans that are made by church members. At our bazaar we will sell baked goods, some lap size quilts and other handiwork.

We have a Ladies' Tea in the Spring and another at Christmas time. The teas are casual, fun events that are very much enjoyed by our ladies and their guests.

On May 16, 2012, we had our Ladies "Garden Party" Spring Tea. The lovely decorations were by Deb K. We had lots of good food, fellowship, and fun!

Threatening weather made for a smaller group this time, but we had a great time! The table decorations were lovely, the food was delicious, and Helen's pineapple and fruit Christmas tree was a big hit. You can click on the pictures to made them bigger.
