DECEMBER PROJECT- CWS Blanket Ministry

In December the Chilmark Church will participate in the Church World Service (CWS) Blanket ministry.It is an easy way to be a part of a broad-reaching mission to provide our neighbors that are experiencing poverty, displacement or disaster with a warm blanket to comfort them in their time of need. Join other generous donors and provide comfort and warmth to our neighbors in need. For example: $10 = CWS blanket, $30 = Three CWS blankets (2 wool and 1 fleece), $60 = Blanket bundle! 3 wool and 3 fleece.
