QUILTERS EVER WONDER WHY OUR CRAFTY MEMBERS MAKE SO MANY QUILTS EVERY YEAR? WHAT HAPPENS TO THE QUILTS? Volunteers at Lutheran churches across the country work every year to aid Lutheran World Relief projects. For over twenty-five years, the Friends of Lutheran World Relief have "gathered in" all Lutheran World Relief parish projects in the greater Chicago area, collecting quilts such as those made by our Trinity Quilters, as well as school kits, sewing kits, health kits, soap and clothing brought in by volunteers from area churches. At Trinity, our volunteer ladies piece together and assemble tied quilts to distribute to refugees around the world. To recognize our volunteers' efforts and to bless the quilts, each year in September Trinity has a special "blessing of the quilts" ceremony during our church services. It is a colorful occasion, with the quilts draped over the backs of the pews. The prayers of our congregation go out to cover the needy who receive our quilts around the world. If you would like to volunteer to help our quilters, please contact the church office at (847)673-8564. |
