The Zion Women in Faith want to thank all the congregation and friends that have
helped make our Mat Ministry a success. To date we have given approximately 160
mats and 70 pillows. These mats and pillows were taken to Philly Deam Center,
Reading City Lights Shelter, and the Bethesada Mission in Harrisburg.
In each mat we include a fleece blanket, heat retaining silver blanket, hat, scarf, and
socks and gloves. We want to thank all those who donate the bags, those who work
from home or attend Saturday morning sessions from 10-12 every 2nd and 4th
Saturdays of the month. Those that help flatten bags, cut bags into strips, join the bags
and roll the bags into balls to be used in crocheting the mats, and all those who donate
items we put into mats; we appreciate everyone’s help because this project could not be
accomplished without the support of our Church Family.
Souper Bowl Sunday extended:
Bring your canned goods, soups, crackers and non-perishables for the local food
bank. We will collect at the back entrance of the church on Sunday February 2,
Sunday February 9 and Sunday, February 16.
Please pick up your offering envelopes in the lobby. Thanks, Cookie Haag
