Blanket Blessing Sunday, May 9th
Join us for 8:30 worship on Sunday, May 9th when the labors of love created by many busy hands will be on display. Dozens of homemade quilts, prayer shawls and fleece blankets have been created to be given to those in need. We pray for God’s blessing on those who receive them, as well as those who make them.
