2017 Watch Word for the PWB

2017 Watch Word
On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. 38 Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” John 7: 37-38 NRSV

Quilt Raffle

 Fundraiser for the Provincial Women’s Board


Every year New Hope Moravian’s Women’s Fellowship makes a beautiful quilt with cross stitched squares that are thematic of the Moravian traditions. Many of the women of the church participate in this project. The quilt is different each year, and it is raffled at the Candle Tea and Bazaar in December.

In 2006 the winner of the raffle happened to be the mother of Pat deBlois, the talented lady that organizes this project and puts the quilt together. Since Pat’s mother has passed away, she has graciously donated the quilt to the Provincial Women’s Board with the intention of raising money for the board.

This quilt looks new and is beautiful. If you want to see it in person, it is on display at Cedarhyrst. The board members will be selling tickets until The Fall Celebration. We will sell tickets at the event and draw the winning ticket before the end of the program. Each ticket is $2.00, and if you buy 10 tickets, you will get one free.

We would love to help you sell a few tickets for us. If you do not know a board member, you can get tickets at Cedarhyrst from Cindy (336-72-4911 or pwbmcsp@gmail.com). If Cindy is not there, Heather also has tickets.

If this is not convenient for you, leave a message for Cindy at the office and we will call you back and try and
get tickets to you.

Many thanks to Pat deBlois for the quilt and the Women’s Fellowship at New Hope for making it.
