On June 11 a total of twenty women gathered at the Clinton CC DOC. The group recognized and celebrated 145 years of leadership of women in the DOC. Women met many challenges as they recognized need, especially care of orphans, need for pensions for pastors, and mission locally and around the world. Listening to the Holy Spirit will guide us in the next 145 years.

A visit to the local food pantry/thrift store,the Samaritan Center was the focus of the day. Many in the community of Clinton worked hard to make this happen. The Samaritan Center serves all of Henry County supplying food, help with utilities, and smiles. The Thrift Store proceeds support the project. VOLUNTEERS as well as donations keep this project meeting needs of the community.

A salad luncheon followed the worship time. Rev. Katrina Palan shared news and upcoming events of the Region. In September Clinton CC will host the Area CWF Assembly.

Warrensburg CWF extended invitation to host the 2020 Bi-County gathering.

Thanks to Pat Bouse, CWF President Clinton, for this information.
