WOMEN OF THE ELCA Morning Circle
Friday, May 8, 10am in Shockey Lounge
Our speaker is Penny Miller, a member of Lord of Life Lutheran Church in Tabernacle and a registered nurse, who went with a 25 person medical team to Haiti to provide medical support. The need was enormous both for medical supplies and for basic personal and household items. But Penny noticed that the women were reluctant to pick up pants and she subsequently learned that Christian women there wear skirts! Penny shared this information with her church home and a group began to make 185 skirts for Penny to take to Haiti on her next trip which was after the devastating earthquake in 2010.
Come and hear the rest of her story and learn of her unique mission effort.
Lunch will follow at The Corner Bakery. Please bring a bag or a bag of beans.
