SOS Activity #1

Our First Large SOS Activity was on Saturday, May 29th. We gathered together to make blankets which we donated to Head Start to be given to teenage mothers in our area.

After some refreshments we started off with a terrific lesson on service from Katy:

Then we headed to the Multi Purpose room to begin work on our fleece and flannel blankets. As we worked we listened to Brandy from Head Start who came to accept our donations and talk to us about what she and her program do, and where the blankets will be going.

It was neat to hear from her, and to know that our blankets were going somewhere that they were truly needed and wanted. As she spoke it was also clear that she was very touched by the service the sisters were providing.

Then all that was left was to finish the job!

In the end we donated 29 blankets to the cause.

Thank you so much to all who participated and who helped plan the event! It was a great success and we are all looking forward to the next one!
