Everyone has unique talents and we believe our ministry is an opportunity to serve as Christians. We are made up volunteers. We pray, laugh, create, and enjoy each other in fellowship.
We meet twice a week at First Lutheran Church, 337 8th St., downstairs in our Fellowship Hall. Our church is also called TDJ (Touch Down Jesus) Church. As we are located on the north end of Main Avenue.

No experience of sewing needed. We need help sandwiching quilts, laying out quilt tops, sewing (we do have sewing machines), tying quilts, and cutting 10 ½” squares.
You may support the FLC Quilters by donating cotton fabric, clean sheets, and thread. We also accept money donations to purchase supplies.
Please drop off your donations at First Lutheran Church’s office with Jo or at our Mission Coffee House front desk with Diane.
