This group meets on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Tuesdays at 10AM in the Wayman L. Still building.
Ladies with various skill levels in crafting, knitting and crocheting gather weekly. Members work on various projects and share their own experience while making items for the annual craft fair and for various charities. In particular prayer shawls and lap blankets are favorite items, given with love to veterans and to those who could use a little encouragement.
All women members of Beautiful Savior are invited to join the crafters group, and are encouraged to bring along family, friends and neighbors to our craft workshops.
