The Women’s Association met at the church in September for a business meeting, lunch and program. Margaret Kulkin gave a very interesting and informative talk and power point slide presentation about Tyler and Rochelle Holm’s ministry in Malawi. Tyler helps train future pastors, teachers and church leaders. Rochelle is involved in teaching people, including people with disabilities, how to improve water sanitation and helping make it easier for them to access clean water.
The next meeting will be Wednesday, November 14th, at noon at the Pancake Haus. The Women’s Association will meet on October 10th at 11:30AM at the church for a business meeting. Lunch will be served around noon. Margaret K. will tell us more about Tyler and Rochelle Holms and how they are using their talents to further God’s work in Malawi.
 The Women’s Association will meet to enjoy lunch together at the Pancake Haus on September 12th at noon. We are trying a new format this year. Some meetings will be lunches out and some will be meetings at church with a business meeting, lunch, and a guest speaker, as in the past. In October, Margaret K. will share information from Tyler and Rochelle Holm, the missionary couple she and Ruth met for lunch.

The Women’s Association met on February 14th for a business meeting and a lovely Valentine’s Day Lunch. The speaker was Tamarah Lee from Hopelink.

 The Rev. Dr. Jean Kim spoke at the January meeting. She spoke about her challenging ministry of helping homeless and very low income people enroll and remain in college to support themselves financially. One big problem facing the students is not having a place to live. Jean works very hard to find adequate housing, including tiny houses on available land. Her foundation helps provide necessary school supplies, medical needs, and other necessities to help the students successfully focus on their education. Jean also provides counseling to the students. The next meeting will be February 14th at 11:30AM, followed by lunch around noon. The speaker will be Tamara Lee from Hopelink.

In November, Mary Ellen Friez from Clear Caption Phones told us about phones for people with some hearing loss. The phone will show what the caller says in text so you can read what they’re saying as well as hear it. The phone is available for free for people with some hearing loss. The cost is paid by a tax on the phone bill. She can be reached at (206) 450-6400. The annual bake sale will be on December 10th after worship.
