/in , , , /by

QUILT DEDICATION
Saturday, March 19, 2022 is National Quilting Day so our dedication
today is timely.
Lutheran World Relief distributed its first quilts in 1945 to families in
war-torn Europe following the Second World War. Within a decade,
the ministry was reaching around the globe to villages far removed
from the world’s attention. Over 27.4 million quilts have been given
during the 75 year period from 1945-2020. Today, an average of
300,000 quilts are lovingly given worldwide each year.
In 2020, 264,585 quilts were shipped to 18 countries. Holy Trinity dedicated 38 quilts on 10/11/2020
and shipped them to the Maryland warehouse.
In the Winter 2022 LWR newsletter, the final numbers of quilts made in 2021 was 122,400 and sent to
19 countries.
Quilters during the pandemic, have included Jane Potter, Cherie Brown, Roz Eckardt, Nancy Korn,
Bobbi Metz, and Kim Hill.
