Mats for the Homeless Ministry

The purpose of this new ministry is to provide sleeping mats to homeless persons. Clean, plastic grocery bags are cut, knotted into “plarn” (plastic yarn) and crocheted into mats (it keeps the plastic out of our landfills, too).  If you are a crocheter, or would like to learn, if you are interested in cutting the plastic, or would like to be involved in this ministry in some way, please consider joining us.  We gather on the 3rd Wednesday of every month at 6:30 pm in the Formation Room for camaraderie, sharing and fun, while doing something worthwhile.  For further information, please contact Kathi Szott, (847) 226-6369, katsz928@yahoo.com   “Individual commitment to a group effort – that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.”  ~  Vince Lombardi
