Did you know: St Matthew has a Craft Group which meets every other month!
A short history:
We started out making dresses and shorts for our Haiti folks. We then made pillows for the cancer center, as well as pillow cases that children in our Religious Education program received at Christmas, along with stuffed animal. Some members make prayer shawls/blankets to give out to out sick and hospilized members.
However, our main project is our Christmas stockings that we give out to the military members and families during the holiday season. We give also to the Wounded Warriors at the Shepherd Center and our local Tyrone fire and police departments. These stockings have increased from the first production of 250 to 850 in the last two years and we believe more can be made!
We could use extra hands to cut, sew. Come join this group of ladies and have some fun!
We could take on any new projects if you have any suggestions. If interested, please contact Amy Anderson at 413-531-9092 or [email protected].
