On the Road
Ann Marie has been busy spreading news of the Greater Newark Chapter of NIN and the work of our wonderful volunteers.
Speaking Engagements:
May 20 – Blessed Sacrament Church Women’s Group/we received $50.00 from the organization and a personal donation of $25.00 from one of its members.
May 24 – Circle of Faith Utica/Owl Creek Baptist Church – the church is 198 years old and in the process of remodeling – Ann’s first time speaking from a church Sanctuary! Several ladies expressed an interest in knitting, crocheting and sewing for our babies. Ann has been asked to return in November to receive the completed projects.
June 11 – Members of the Owl Creek Baptist Church Youth Group met with Ann Marie at St. Francis. They had heard of us through the article about Herschel and Helen and their visit to the hospital and of our workroom in Utica.
July 5 – St. John’s United Church of Christ (home church to member Sylvia Yaekle).
Back In His Arms Again
Kambra and Shawn Malone, founders of Back In His Arms Again have seen significant growth in their ministry and therefore have a greater need for burial layettes, Memory envelopes and all the burial items made by our chapter. Recently our chapter donated two boxes of burial layettes in different sizes to the ministry. Ann Marie invited the couple to speak at our August meeting, our 5th Anniversary!
