Warm Giving
Do you remember the mission committee’s project called Warm Tree? It occurred in December and was an opportunity to donate winter clothing items for the children at Fairview/Adams Elementary. However, the children really need the items sooner than the former delivery date in January.
The mission committee has moved this opportunity to October and are calling it "Warm Giving”. Items needed are stocking caps, head bands, waterproof gloves, and socks. Donations can be placed in the basket in the front lobby.
Mat Weaving-Meets every Wednesday 1-3 pm
This is plastic mat #10. It is our most colorful mat so far and is almost completed. (You can see the small space in the center where the weaving needs to be finished).
The potato masher on the top of the mat is used to tighten the weaving so the likelihood of moisture getting through is diminished.
We are now able to send mats to the Thanksgiving Ingathering along with the boxes of kits.
Notes to those who cut plastic bags at home:
• Fareway bags are cut in half because they are used for the center strands on which the weaving is done.
• Other brands of bags have the top and bottom cut off but are not cut in half.
• Thank you for all you do for this project.
