The quilting ladies at WCBC have been hard at work! We have completed many prayer quilts for community members with needs.... illness, births, travels, job changes, encouragement...Each of these quilts is uniquely designed, carefully assembled, and most importantly prayed over. As the ties are tied, prayers go up for the needs of the recipient.
