Children and youth Party on the lawn
Time flies when you’re having fun! We’ve had a great year and now it’s time to celebrate! Kids of all ages are invited to an evening of food, fellowship and an all-around good time at our end-of-the-year Party on the Lawn. Please join us on Wednesday, May 14! This is a great opportunity to invite family, friends and neighbors so spread the word!
Children 6:00-7:30 p.m.

Comforters
Comforters meet to put together small baby quilts. We match two flannel pieces of cloth, sew them together, turn them, and then tie them. Most of these small blankets are sent to Tree of Life, Mission, SD. A few blankets may be given to other non-profits in the Sioux Falls area. All are welcome to come and make the small quilts.
Join us Wednesday, May 14 at 9:30 a.m. in Room 005.
mat weaving
Come make Plarn Sleeping Mats for Midwest Mission Distribution Center (MMDC). Plarn is plastic yarn made out of plastic grocery bags. The Sleeping Mats are sent internationally and locally. They are great for those who need a barrier between them and the hard ground. They have been sent for disaster relief, for the homeless, and for those who need temporary sleeping arrangements. Please sign up in the Mission Room (Room 005). Questions? Please contact Rennae at 605-261-2998.
Join us on Wednesdays, May 21 from 9:30-11:30 a.m. in Room 005.
Sewers Needed!
It’s time to start sewing cloth bags for the Missions Team…our goal is 200 bags! We’ll be filling these bags with school supplies for MMDC (Midwest Mission Distribution Center) in August. Sewers are invited to pick up a pattern and fabric outside the church office. Fabric donations are also welcome and can be dropped off in the container by the church office. The recommended fabrics are denim, corduroy, sailcloth, med-heavy drapery, and light upholstery. Questions? Please contact Cindy Nelson.
