SEWING MINISTRY

Come join us and make a difference in the community!   We make a variety of items: fleece hats/mittens, pediatric pillows, clothing protectors, baby blankets/burp cloths, bandana bibs, Christmas stockings for the troops, quilts, altar linens, walkers bags, and clothing protectors for the elderly, plus much more!  No experience is necessary…we need help pressing, cutting, and pinning.  We can also teach or refresh sewing skills for those who are interested.  We have sewing machines and a variety of donated fabrics.

If you would like to learn more about this ministry, please email or call St. Rita church office (parishoffice@stritarockford.org/815-398-0853).
