Women gather each Wednesday to work on projects that meet needs locally and around the world. They also do custom hand quilting and piece and knot comforters.
Hand quilters prepare a quilt each year for the Ohio Mennonite Relief Sale, which benefits Mennonite Central Committee, a world relief, service and peace agency.
Prayer quilts are shared with those experiencing illness or a difficult situation.
Women enjoy support and fellowship as they work together and share the noon meal.
