LUTHERAN WOMEN'S MISSIONARY LEAGUE - April 2018

The LWML Ladies Guild will meet on the 4th, beginning at noon when you BYOL, BringYourOwnLunch; dessert will be provided. We will fellowship for 30 minutes and begin our meeting at 12:30.

Nominations for officers will be nominated for the coming year. We will vote at our May meeting.

TLC continues to open their pockets. Our MITES are growing. The LWML FL.GA. District goal for grants ends on June 30th. Balance needed is around $24,000.00. Period 4 ended October 2017 and Period 5 ended February 2018. In both of these periods Trinity ranked 4th in the highest giving in the FL.GA. District. In the 5th Period we were only $3.61 less than the 3rd place. God uses our change and bills to build Mighty Mites that fund worthwhile grants to spread His love.

There will be a sign-up sheet in the Narthex for those that want to attend the Zone Rally in Warner Robins on April 21st. We will discuss this more at our meeting. It will be from 9-2:30 and registration is $10 which includes breakfast and lunch. A great day for fellowship and spiritual growth with our LIPS “Ladies In Purple Shirts!”

LUTHERAN WORLD RELIEF QUILTERS - April 2018
 

LWR Quilters are pleased to continue supporting the LWR health kits for distribution to those in need across the world. For April we are asking for donations of soap. Bath-sized bars, any brand. Two or 3 bars have been requested for each health kit we send. In 2017 we sent 55 health kits. We truly appreciate your thoughtfulness for others. Please place your soap in the grey box in the Social Hall by the LWML board (by Kitchen entrance). You can still donate the towels as well in the same box. All appreciated!

The Quilters will meet on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays in April (4/10 and 4/24). We have been going through our tubs of fabric, and were recently blessed to receive a big bag of fabric. This greatly helps to defray our costs (if you have extra coupons for JoAnn's, we'd love to have them to help out when we're shopping for that 'one-more-color' to fill out a quilt). We also have received a nice donation of flat sheets to use for backings. We ask for the donations to be cotton. We cannot use corduroy, satins, knits, wools, upholstery fabric, or sheer fabrics. Thank you one and all for remembering us.

We continue to be quilter bees, sharing the love we have for others.

In His service,
Rosemary Gerdes (912-644-0313)
