Quilting Ministry
August 15, 2024
OUR MISSION:
To involve senior adults in activities, programs, and opportunities which will encourage their growth as disciples of Christ.
OUR GOALS:
- to reflect God’s love
- to lead others to Christ
- to look for ways to serve, care for and encourage others in the church and in the community
- to be a Christ-like example to our own generation as well as other generations
WE BELIEVE:
- We are called to serve the Lord, even into our older years and even when physical problems slow us down. Our job is done when the Lord calls us home, and not until then.
