Everyone,
A few more items of information to share with you and your congregations as
the Relief Sale draws ever closer.
- We now have 42 quilts for the auction this year! We have a few more
large quilts compared with recent years, and some very nice ones. Photos
of many of them are posted on our web site at www.texasreliefsale.org.
- We received a generous donation of two vintage quilts from a 90-year
old gentleman in the Houston area. Both were made by his mother who was a
faithful and lifelong member of the sewing circle at the Mennonite Brethren
Church in Corn, Oklahoma. These two quilts include the first one she ever
made (in 1910) and the last one, in the 1970s.
- We have some very nice woodworking again this year, including another
kitchen stool from Dave Wiebe. Again, photos are on the web site.
- If you have something you wish to donate for the quilt auction, please
send along the information about it no later than October 26, to have it
included in the quilt booklet. The item does not need to be here, but we
do need the information by then.
- Just a reminder, we will NOT be selling used books at the Sale this
year.
- Please encourage folks in your congregation to follow the Relief Sale
on social media (Facebook and Instagram). Regardless of where you live,
you can help make sure the Sale is a success by spreading the word.
Thanks to everyone for your support. We look forward to seeing many of you
on November 8.
