Stitchers for Jesus Celebrate 10 Years

by Cheryll Overla
 
The Stitchers for Jesus celebrated their 10th Anniversary on September 3rd. Sue Stewart and Marvene Wallace visited a church in Arkansas that had a sewing ministry and after seeing what these ladies were doing, decided they would like to bring the idea home to the Trinity ladies. Ideas were shared, plans were made and soon the group was off and sewing. Of the original group that started, two ladies are still with us: Sue Stewart and Rita McFaddin.  In 10 years of the ministry, about 5000 dresses, many shorts sets, quilts, afghans, baby hats, walker tote bags, adult bibs and COVID face masks were made and distributed to various ministries around the world! As much as we are able to help others, all of the stitchers love this ministry and being able to do the things we love is a huge blessing to all of us.
