Community Outreach - CHIEF

The Patchwork Sisters helped serve our Native sisters recently during their annual fall conference (CHIEF) on Nov 5-6.   

2021 Fall GROW Class

 

Class Description: 

For the next three months, Patchwork Sisters will be studying Dr. David Jeremiah’s Bible Study Series on 1 & 2 Timothy during Sunday School hours.  1 & 2 Timothy were written by apostle Paul near toward the end of his life on earth.  Paul knew the challengers and conflicts Timothy and Christ’s followers will encounter as they minister and provide guidance to the churches. Therefore, Paul wrote these final epistle letters to encourage and empower Timothy and Christ’s followers in living and leading others for Christ.  We will be focusing on Paul’s instructions to Timothy relating to maintain integrity and faithfulness while witnessing, preach sound doctrine, pursue godliness and contentment, and maintain order.  Most of all, we will be concentrating on how to apply what we learn into our lives and build the church. 

Class Schedule: 

Sundays from 11:10 am- 12:30 pm, Room B207-208, in person only (no zoom)

** Please contact Patchwork Sisters prior to first day of class to reserve a copy of the book.** 

Informal Fellowship

 

Dear Patchwork Sisters,

You are invited to join us for an informal Patchwork Sisters fellowship next Sunday, September 5 from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM in B207/208. It will be nice for us to be able to fellowship in person again.

During this fellowship, we will update you on any upcoming Patchwork Sisters’ Ministry events, the Fall Sunday School quarter, as well as a short time of sharing testimonies.

2021 Card Making and Shaved Ice Fellowship

 

Dear Sisters, you are invited to the Patchwork Sisters Shave Ice and Card Making Fellowship on Saturday, June 26,2021 in the Fellowship Hall from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM. We thank the Lord for this opportunity to meet in person after a year of virtual meetings, so come on out to fellowship. We miss you!

We will set up card making stations, where you can pick and choose to make as many cards as you like. We would like to request that you make one card to contribute to the  Patchwork Sisters card pile, and the rest will be yours to take home. Patchwork Sisters send cards out whenever someone  is sick or in need of encouragement, so this card stock pile will come in useful and handy.

 

There will also be a sign up for Shaved Ice items.  Please email Pam Bakas and let  her know what items you are bringing.  Thanks!
