Ten Thousand Villages is collecting gently worn shoes for Well of Hope, an organization providing safe shelter for women and their children. Tie each pair of shoes together with a piece of yarn, which can also be used by the widows for additional projects. There is a box in the coat room for shoe donations.

Please Prayer For:

    • The victims of Hurricane Sandy.
    • Susan Huyard as she deals with the effects of chemotherapy.
    • Joyce Showalter as she heals following shoulder surgery.
    • BJ Rohr and Merton Greenleaf, our friends and family dealing with cancer and its treatment.
    • And praise God that Tracey Lisi does not have cancer!
