Adams American Lutheran Church
LWR Quilting
The Women of the ELCA have been busy cutting, sewing, and tying blankets for Lutheran World Relief.  As of mid March, 35 blankets had been completed.  Some of these blankets will be sent overseas for Lutheran World Relief while a few will remain here for our local clothing pantry. This project will continue throughout the year and anyone interested should come to the church on the third Monday of each month at 9:00 a.m. to join in the fellowship.  Work can also be done at home with the kits that have been put together by Wanda Larson and Mary Brink.
Come join us!

Just Desserts was an event that targeted our members of 75+ years of age.  The purpose of the event was to get the senior members of our congregation together for some fellowship and tasty desserts.

 

Harriet VanEngen gave the Welcome, history of Valentine’s Day, and Valentine’s Bingo 

Sharon Floth played the piano with old love songs, and played “Name that Tune” 

We had a printout to complete with Bible Couples to match up names… 

There were 20 in attendance plus myself, Sharon and Harriet 

Desserts were supplied by Christy, Harriet, Carol Buhr, Janette Buhr and Rhonda Page 

Harriet and Christy setup and served everything (coffee, flavored coffee, iced tea and water) 

 

Thank you Christy for setting up a wonderful event!
