Creative Crafters Update
Card Corner &
Chemo Caps for Cancer Patients
November 2024
The congregation’s support of Crafter’s Card Corner continues to be amazing! This support has made it possible for Crafters to make a recent donation of $150.00 to Westwood Cares. In addition, Crafters has made a $100 donation to each of the following:
Zion’s Thanksgiving Community Outreach and Zion’s Christmas Giving Program. Cards are updated regularly so please take a moment to see what’s new. Proceeds from the Card Corner help support Westwood Cares, as well as, other church and community outreach programs.
Crafters has also been busy crocheting chemo caps for cancer patients.
On Monday, November 11, we hand delivered 20 caps and packets of lemon drops to the Infusion Center at Englewood Hospital. The nursing staff and supervisor were delighted!
(These caps are in addition to the
35 caps previously donated to the hospital by Crafters.)
Once again, we thank the congregation for their continued support!

We invite families to bring their children to Sunday School, as we prepare for Easter by learning stories, sing songs, and engaging in crafts that highlight the beautiful message of Jesus' love. Sunday school is held during the 10:15am service. We encourage parents to be active participants in their children's Christian growth, instilling the lifelong gift of faith and prayer.
