Mini-Retreat scheduled for May 8

Everyone is cordially invited to attend a mini-retreat day on Tuesday, May 8 at 11:00 AM, for a time of prayer, a program, a craft and fellowship. Darlene Logston Bonner will present a program on the US2 Missionary work she has done. She also has become active as an Origami Owl jewelry designer and will offer a “jewelry bar,” splitting the profits to raise funds for the UMW.
After Darlene’s presentation, Kay Coombs will lead a craft project – painting pine cones for table decorations.

Please bring prepped pine cones to the meeting.

To prepare pine cones:

• Fill a 5-gallon bucket 1/2 full of water, add 1 cup vinegar for each gallon of water (kills bugs, etc.)

• Soak pine cones 30 to 45 min. stirring every 5 to 10 minutes.

• Remove pine cones, place on towel to dry for 2-3 days or dry in a 200 Degree oven for 30 minutes.

• Spray with acrylic Mod Podge, keeps pine cones from becoming brittle. • Bring paint brush and pine cones to meeting. Kay Coombs will provide paint
