The Lutheran World Relief Boxcar loading for quilts and kits was held on October 1st in Madison. Thank you to Steve H, who transported our quilts and soap donations to Madison for us! Special thanks to the devoted crew, who cut and sewed all year long to make this ministry possible! They made 74 quilts this year: 69 were shipped to Lutheran World Relief and 5 were donated for use in our community.

There will be a second collection on October 2nd for donations to the quilt shipping fund. It costs $2.25 each to ship our quilts. So, we need $155.25 to ship our quilts this year. Can you help?

P.S. Thanks to a new barcode application, we will be able to track our quilts as they travel across the globe. Watch the Messenger for a report in a few months!
