Mary Martha Quilters

Day: Mondays
Time: 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Location: Room 222
Leader:  J.J. Hancock

This group of ladies has a lot of history. Some of our quilters have been with this ministry for 30-40 years.  We range in age from 50s to 80s, but we are all young at heart. We meet every Monday, when church is open, from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. with time for lunch and fellowship.

The Mary Martha Quilters make quilts that will eventually be donated and auctioned; and we charge 75 cents an hour to make a quilt for someone who requests one. All of our profits go to missions. Our primary benefactor is Manchester Center; however, we also donate to other charities. We usually send several quilts each year to the Festival of Sharing.

If you are interested in learning the art of hand quilting, we will be happy to teach you. If you would like to see what we are working on now, stop by on Monday mornings! We love to show off what we are working on and other projects that we have completed. 

Newcomers welcome!

A Big Table- You are what you eat

Rev. Ron Beaton, Sermon 8.19.24, “A Big Table- You are what you eat.” John 6:51-58 NRSVUE
“Following Jesus is not about individual spiritual growth alone. Growing as a Christian is individual spiritual growth and reaching out in love and service to the world. We cannot have one without the other. We must Love God and Love neighbor. We must be engaged in works of piety and works of mercy.”
“Be what you see, receive what you are. In other words, in this bread, see the body of Christ, receive the body of Christ,
Be the body of Christ,
Be the body of Christ that feeds the hungry.
Be the body of Christ that healed the sick.
Be the body of Christ that proclaimed release to the captives.
Be the body of Christ who cleaned nasty, calloused feet.
Be the body of Christ that welcomed little children into his arms and said this is who the kingdom of God belongs to.
Be the body of Christ that eats with outcasts and tax collectors and rabble-rousers and Samaritans and the poor and well, with anybody eat with anybody.”
Be the body of Christ.
