It's time to get together to finish our Purple Cap project and to plan for our 2015 stitching.
Let's meet on Sunday, January 25th at 4 pm in the Parish Hall.
Please bring any purple baby caps that you have finished so that we can have them blessed and then distributed to the SGMC Nursery.
Prior to the meeting, be thinking about how you would like to see the Stitchers minister to our community through handmade woolies. If you cannot make the meeting, just send me an email with your thoughts.
See you on the 25th....and bring a friend! Remember, we have great knitting and crochet teachers!
For more information contact Pepi Nelson.

The 2015 Dominican Republic Mission Team is meeting Sunday, January 25, from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. in the Christ Church Parish Hall to discuss projects and logistical arrangements for our trip. We currently have 21 people signed up for the team. While 24 is the limit the team can accept because of in-country bus transportation, there are some people who have signed up but have not yet bought their flight tickets. The deadline to sign up and purchase tickets is February 15. If you are thinking about joining the team, please come to the meeting and participate in the discussion. The cost of the trip is approximately $1200.
Can't be a member of the "Go Team" this year? Please consider being a "Home Team" member and donate money to support our building projects, a daycare center and a village home, or scholarships at the local Eposcopal school. Watch for the date of our annual Dominican Night fundraiser this spring.
