Dedication of Quilts
Oct. 21, 2007

The Social Ministry Committee at Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Church in Webster, NY has received funding from the Rochester, NY Thrivent chapter for a second Care Abounds in Communities� project.

This project will allow us to create and ship 30 or more quilts to be donated to the Quilts of Valor Foundation (QOVF). The QOV program was started by Catherine Roberts when her son left for Iraq. She saw a need, which continues to grow, to honor our combat wounded. These quilts are distributed by chaplains in military hospitals to combat wounded.

This is our second year for this project.

This year's sewing bee will be held August 22, 23 and 24, 2008
