Meet on the second and fourth Mondays of each month at Shady Grove Church from 11:15 am to 12:15 pm; this follows the Bible Study class. Meetings on 4/22, etc. Meet on the first and third Thursdays of each month at the White Gate Community Center from 7 – 8 pm. Meetings on 4/18, etc.  Come learn if you need to; if you are already proficient at knitting or any other stitching skill, bring your project and join us for a friendly time. Contact Suzy Bane if you have questions: 540-599-7631 or suzybane@comcast.net
  • Deepening our roots with reading and discussion of biblical topics.   Mac & Teresa hope to be in their new home late June or early July. One project that they would like to open up to the community is a gathering at their new home over a simple meal to discuss a book (chapter or two).  Gauging interest at this point…let Mac or Teresa know you might be interested.  This would not be an ongoing commitment.
