Trinity English Lutheran Church --New Stitches of Hope drop-off location


Great news! A major church in downtown Ft Wayne, IN, has volunteered to be a drop-off site for Stitches of Hope.
Trinity English Lutheran Church
405 West Wayne Street,
Fort Wayne, IN 46802-2186Phone: (260) 426-3424

As you can see from the photo, this church is huge. Founded in 1846, Trinity English Lutheran Church has been at its current location since 1925. After its latest building program, Trinity English now occupies the entire 400 block of Wayne Street and Washington Boulevard. If you need directions on how to get there, use http://www.mapquest.com/.

Having been inside, I can tell you it is a gorgeous building.

Better than the building itself, however, are the people. They have generously agreed to accept completed crocheted, knitted, and stitched caps, turbans; financial donations; or new yarn and other supplies from Stitches of Hope volunteers.
The church office keeps regular workday hours, which makes this helpful for Stitches of Hope volunteers who live in the Ft Wayne area. Now volunteers can drop off items during any weekday.

Several women who attend Trinity English have also expressed interest in creating caps for the group. That is also terrific!

Thanks to ALL of our volunteers. It is so exciting to work with such a caring, talented group who provide boutique-quality items for cancer patients, and other people experiencing health crises. My co-worker Karen Story and I think you are the best.

God bless you for your hard work.
