LWML Christmas Party Pictures

Grace Lutheran has two wonderful LWML groups - Ladies Aid (day) and Mary Martha (night).  They both celebrated the Christmas season this past week in their meetings.

Mary Martha ladies decorated the church for Christmas season.  One tree was decorated with crismons and lights and the other a sin tree is dark with red apples.  The sides of the church are decorated with evergreen and blue banners with the verses of O Come, O Come, Immanuel on them.

Ladies Aid Baby Quilt

Grace Lutheran Ladies Aid were to make a quilt for the LWML Convention.  Diane Bolling embroidered this beautiful quilt for the group.  The quilt blocks have the bedtime prayer, "Now I lay me down to sleep..."  The quilt will be given to Lutheran Family Services.  Miranda Mosel who works for them will see that it gets to someone special.
