There is a list of the items and a sample kit on the table in the lobby. Everything can be bought at the Dollar store. There are also instructions on how to assemble these kits. Please bring your assembled kits to the church and we will get them to the UMCOR Depot in Salt Lake City. If you are interested in sponsoring this project, let us know.
SEWING TEACHER AND QUILTER NEEDED–The Women’s Shelter has a sewing room but they have no one to teach the women how to sew. The shelter manager would love any support they can get because the women love learning to sew. If you are interested, you can contact either the volunteer coordinator at the shelter or the shelter manager at the Women’s Shelter. Also, if you can quilt, we have all the pieces for another Shiloh UMC hand quilt. If you can help, please contact the office.
