The Disciples Women at First Christian Church in Festus recently sponsored a raffle for our mission co-workers Larry and Debbie Colvin. Two beautiful handmade items were donated to the project. A large afghan was crocheted by member Margaret Means, and a quilt was donated by Barb Cobion, sister of one of our members. The drawing for the two items was held on November 15th. The winner of the afghan was Tom Anderson from FCC Festus. The winner of the quilt was Ellen, a friend of Barb Cobion. This year a total of three hundred dollars ($300) was raised for the Colvins. This is the third year that various ladies have shared their wonderful talents and donated the beautiful handmade items to raise money for the Colvins.

Quilter Barb Coibion was moved to action by the daily devotion of her sister Bernadette. The devotion suggested making something for someone for good. With her extra free time during pandemic shut downs, she made this beautiful quilt to raise money for mission.
