Quilting Group

Did you know quilters call in-progress quilts “quilt sandwiches”? Each has a top, middle, and back. Right now, the LWLC Quilters need “middles,” and flat bed sheets work perfectly for this! Cotton or cotton/poly flat sheets (any color) can be repurposed into the middle layer of quilts that travel the world to provide warmth, shelter, or even carry-all. Flannel is fine, too—but satin and knit sheets are too slippery. If you have extra sheets in good condition at home or find them at a yard sale, please consider donating them. The Quilters thank you for your generosity!


Recent Google Review for Love One Another Preschool

We have been so impressed with the love and attention they have given to our daughter. It’s so nice they have plenty of room for the kids since they use the entire church for preschool. It’s a wonderful mission that the church provides for those in the community since it’s free. I thought there would be a “catch” but there hasn’t and it’s been a wonderful experience for us all!


Did You Know...?

LWLC packaged 20,000 meals on September 19th with Rise Against Hunger to feed hungry children somewhere in the world. In a few months, we will find out to which country these meals were sent. Over the last 12 years we have packaged and sent 260,000 meals to feed hungry people. We are thankful for the opportunity to make a difference in the world.
