HERES’ WHAT’S HAPPENING IN WELCA…….

 

WELCA gives two $500.00 Senior scholarships out each year. This years’   recipients are Elizabeth Boomsma & Zach Hentschel.    Congratulations & Best Wishes! Thanks to Becky, Cheryl & Vi for choosing this years’ winners.

Ice Cream Social is still on for Sunday, July 26. The committee may change it up a bit this year. Stay tuned for more details.

 August General Meeting (changed from June 13), will hopefully meet   Saturday August 1, 2020 in MLR. Cheryl Lundeen will give us her        presentation on her “Sharing the Dream” trip to Guatemala. We are    hoping ladies from Sharing the Dream Store will also be able to come for a visit. Mary Circle will host & give devotions.

Paint & Sip is rescheduled for Saturday, September 26 @ 2 pm at        Heartland Funeral Home. Heather from Creative Spirits will lead us through our creation.

During this unprecedented time, we have had many ladies from our church, who have stepped up & gone above & beyond, to help in        whatever way they could. Hundreds of masks were made, along with gowns, caps & mask extenders. Calls were made to make sure everyone was ok; and food was dropped off. Mother’s Day flowers were given out in drive-by fashion at the church, and others were delivered. “The Quilt      Lady” distributed various sewing projects, to keep us all busy. Thanks to you all! It definitely takes a village, doesn’t it?

We still have WELCA handbooks available in the church office. Limited   office hours will be Monday & Wednesday from 8 am to 12 pm. Right now, we are going week to week, as we follow church guidelines, and proceed through the months ahead.  Stay well everyone, and we pray we can all be together very soon.
