Calvary Quilters

Calvary's Quilt Ministry is a tangible way to express love to our neighbors in need, both locally and internationally. Quilts can be used as warm bedding, simple tents, or floor coverings. Each one reflects God's loving presence in a world filled with suffering. Compassionate people just like you have put their faith into action and donate money, fabric, batting, 45mm rotary blades, yarn, thread, and twin flat sheets so the Calvary Quilt Ministry can make quilts for people in need at home and around the world. 

The Calvary Quilt Ministry creates hundreds of twin size quilts that are sent to the Lutheran World Relief and to local charities. Your quilting supply gift will reach individuals who are living in some of the most remote and forsaken regions of the world. These gifts of love make life brighter, softer, and a bit more comfortable for those individuals who are struggling with chronic poverty, illness, natural disaster, and conflict.

Calvary Quilters meet Wednesday mornings, 8:30 - 11:00 a.m. Come when you can and leave when you must. No need to know how to sew. All are welcome!
