WELCA Tag Sale raises funds for good causes

WELCA's "Good Stuff" Tag Sale was held at LCR on November 5, 2005. Tables were rented to LCR members, friends and neighbors for a small price and everyone pitched in to make the day a success. Everything from clothing, appliances, decorations, toys were offered at the sale, as well as an LCR Youth-sponsored bake sale and healthy, home cooked lunches sold in our Lounge area.

WELCA is proud to announce that sales netted a total of $1,151.70, nearly the same amount made last year. Here's the breakdown: The WELCA-sponsored bric-a-brac tables returned $467.50; table rentals gave us $400; the bake sale sold $166.70;
and lunch sales were $117.50.

Our blessings and appreciation to Thrivent Financial for Lutherans, who gave $900 toward this project. All total, that makes possible the giving of over $2,000 toward
the projects which the women and youth had voted on. WELCA will be gifting $1,700
to LCR's Little Blessings Children’s Center and $250 to The PEPY Ride, a program that does educational bike rides across Cambodia raising awareness about and money to build a rural school in that country. The Youth Group will receive $166.60 to send to Lutheran World Relief ( Pakistan ). It was a fun day with everyone working together
for the Lord’s work.
