LWML lap robe project through Thrivent Action Team is wrapping up

We are wrapping up our lap robe project for this year. We would like to have all the completed robes in by May 2nd. If you cannot finish your robe by May 2nd, hold on to it and we will resume again this fall. The finished robes are hanging in the fellowship hall on the stage area. The robes are beautiful and I want to thank everyone who made the robes. The Nursing Homes really appreciate them and I hope that you enjoyed making them as much as I did. Thank you again. Carolyn C.

Twenty Lutheran churches from southern Montana and northern Wyoming brought 621 boxes weighing 15,008 lbs. of quilts and kits. Mount Olive LWML and quilters donated 138 quilts, 35 personal care kits, and 71 school kits. Many thanks to Grace Lardy, Rachelle Sparks, Kyle Armstong, and Chris Johns for their help in weighing and labeling the 45 boxes from Mount Olive before the drive. And a big thank you to Jason and Lukas Johnson, Kyle Armstrong, Jonathan besel, Nicole Rodriguez, Jamie Robertson, and Chris Johns for their help in loading the 621 boxes into the semi; also, thank you to Lorli Mercer for her help with the paper work. Without all the help from these individuals, it would be impossible for me to do this job. ~ Donnaleen Ganskop, LWML, Southern Zone Coordinator~
