It's always a busy time!  And it's about to get busier!  There is always on opportunity to be of service.  Please see our calendar page for more details.

  

The women of the church met on November 12, 2011, for breakfast.  Thanks to great cooks Janie F. & Janice G.  Andee P. provided a wonderful devotion as always..   The next breakfast meeting is February 11 at church.   Robyn B. and Lindsay D. will provide the breakfast; Agnes R. will offer the devotions.

 

After breakfast, the women discussed a variety of projects:

Volunteers who agreed to take charge of the above projects will report results in February.  In the meantime, a blessed Christmas and a wonderful new year to all!

 

Many of the women of the church work through OPW (Ottawa Presbyterian Women) to help with various church activities such as meals and fund-raising events.  Much of their work goes on behind the scenes.  No matter what the activity, having fun is always at the top of the agenda!

 

There are five meetings each year, usually in September, November, February, April and June.  The first four meetings are breakfast meetings and the June meeting varies from breakfasts to salad lunches.  In fact, one year the June meeting was so unusual that it was held in August instead of June!!!  (And we left with our sides aching from laughing!) 

 

The women hold garage sales (rummage sales) each year in June.  They also hold "no-bake" bake sales--less work, no calories, and lots more fun!  You will also find them at Putnam Acres Care Center on the 2nd Wednesday of every month as they help the residents there play bingo--for more than thirty-five consecutive years!  And, even though the group name mentions "women," the majority of the activities involve all people (and all ages) of the church.
