Quilts and Hygiene Kits Donated
Kay & Bob Marshall from OGT’s Lincoln Collection Center was invited to speak after service at Christ Lutheran Church in Falls City, their sister congregation, St. Paul’s Lutheran of rural Falls City was also invited to attend. The Marshall’s shared about OGT & the Lincoln location then enjoyed a potluck luncheon. An offering was gathered, and Christ and St. Paul’s members were very generous. In addition, Christ Lutheran ladies presented them with 10 beautiful quilts, several hygiene kits and a fully-equipped back pack. Thanks very much to the congregation for its missional heart, and especially to Pastor Ken Humphrey for the invitation!
