SOME HISTORY TRIVIA ABOUT THE LWML: At the first LWML convention in 1943, delegates approved using $15,000 in mite offerings to help fund construction of a building for Christ Church for the Deaf in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1987, the national mite goal was $1,000,000. In 2015, the national mite goal reached $2,000,000. We are serving the Lord with gladness.

We will start to collect some plastic grocery bags to be donated to Camp Okoboji. This is to help them save money on trash bags. Bags should be in decent shape meaning no big holes. If you are willing to help please contact Charles Ellis for more information.
