Years of quilting by many to make one day special
Three years ago the Sisters of St Benedict set aside a room in the monastery whose sole purpose is for quilting. The sisters did this because they needed to create enough quilts to raffle off at their Summer Social, which will be held on July 7, 2012. Women from surrounding parishes and where sisters ministered are invited to come every week to help create these quilts. In charge of this large project is Sister Dolorita Libs. (More)
