Summer was way too short, but now it is time to begin our fall program. Our September 13 meeting will be held at EPC in the friendship hall at 11:30 AM. All our meetings are scheduled for the 2nd Wednesdays of the month until next summer. We have requested a speaker from Support 7 to provide our program.
Our treasurer, Kathy M, has collected our mission offerings and dispersed $75 to each of the 13 mission projects we support. In this time of unemployment and inflation they surely need all we can send them. We received many letters from the recipients of these funds thanking us for our continued support. We plan to share these letters with you at our September meeting.
Don’t forget that October is Sock-It-To-Me month when we collect new white socks for distribution to those in need for Operation Nightwatch our longtime friend, Rick Reynolds has retired, but his co-worker Frank DiGirolamo is continuing as executive director and continuing their street ministry and providing overnight shelter for the homeless. Frank tells us they now have a shelter bus which has been needing repairs so they really appreciate our contributions.
Our October meeting will be an informal lunch at the Pancake Haus in downtown Edmonds. All women including women from other churches are welcome to attend our meetings and feel free to invite a visitor.
Looking forward to seeing you all this fall.
Margaret S, Moderator
