Come join our Mission Monday's Creative Hands Group the second (2nd) Monday of each month 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. Due to summmertime renovation of Courtenay Hall/Lounge, the group will meet at the home of Karen Pasquale as they continue to create items to use on foreign mission trips and at local mission agencies. Come for all of the time (bring your own lunch) or just part of the time. You can even bring your children with you!
We encourage anyone who enjoys sewing, knitting, crocheting or even cutting fabric to join us for this time of fellowship as we support our church's mission efforts. Sewing machines are provided.
Have fun cutting and sewing beautiful banners for our new Foreign Churches as well as gift totes for the graduates of The Next Door program. You can also help knit or crochet 60" x 30" prayer shawls for foreign mission trips, scarves for Christmas for the women participating in The Next Door program, and baby blankets (handwork and machine work) for Miriam's Promise . Come help spread the warmth and love of Jesus! No need to be a professional seamstress - members of the group are happy to help you get started. You may contact Karen Pasquale with questions (376-6097).
