Sew & Sews - Sew and Sews have officially retired! After making many, many quilts for the sick, the bereaved, graduates, babies and those hospitalized, we need to pack up our sewing machines, needles, thread and material. We are so thankful we had this opportunity to spread God’s light near and far.

As a result, we have two sewing machines that we would like to pass on to someone who is in need and may not be able to procure one at this time.
We extend this gift to members of our church family or anyone you might know for the month of June.

In July we shall extend this gift to the community. (CCWN or Safe Families or Grimsby Benevolent Foundation)

Please talk to Wilma Smith or Linda Minter if you know of someone.

Many thanks to Wilma Smith, Linda Kennedy, Renea Wilkins, Jean (and Barry Hannah), Brenda Kennedy, Anna Cox, Carole Cook, Lynne, Nancy Veinot, Beth Forsyth and Linda Minter.

Hopefully we have not forgotten any of our happy Sew and Sew women!

The Tintern Church of Christ is preparing for a mission trip to Japan to connect with Joel Osborne, Hiro Akahoshi and the Mito Church of Christ through outreach, fellowship, and service. To help fund this trip, we’re launching a technology donation fundraiser, and we’d love your support!

What We’re Accepting:

·Laptops

·iPads

·iPhones

·MacBooks

·Tablets

·Other (gently used) electronic devices

How It Works:

·All donated devices will be securely wiped, removing all personal information using professional tools.

·Many devices will be updated and refurbished for resale.

·100% of the proceeds will go directly toward our mission trip expenses.
