People of our congregation gather every Wednesday morning from 9am - 12pm to quilt. The quilts they make are shared all over the world. Some are received by graduating seniors and some quilts go across the world with Lutheran World Relief. 

On the first Thursday of every month at 1pm, knitters and crocheters gather to make and pray over shawls. These shawls find their way into the laps and on the shoulders of people in need of comfot and prayer. 

At home and in other places crafters and makers use their skills to make furniture, slippers, gifts, art and other things that are given as gits at milestones in people's lives. Together we support one another in the making and gifting of these items. 

To join in any of our crafting and making check out our calendar for upcoming events and opportunities or contact our church office to connect. 

The second Wednesday of every month, adults gather for Bible study at the church. This is a chance for us to learn something about the historical and literary context of our scripture. It is also a chance for us to share the meaning and impact of scripture on our lives. Check out our calendar to join us for the next Wednesday Bible Study. 

Ruth Circle hosts a women's Bible study on the first Thursday of each month at 9am. Join us for an exploration of scripture in our lives.
