Project Comfort was started in 2007 by members of the Women of the Word Bible Study class who wanted to learn how to quilt and has since grown into a church-wide local community mission. Items provided by Project Comfort include quilts, knit hats, breast cancer angel pins, comfort pillows used by cancer and surgical patients as well as children in wheelchairs, salvation bracelets, and bibs needed by young adults. These give the recipients comfort in times of stress, and the list continues to grow as God reveals needs in our community.
The arms of Project Comfort have reached far and wide. A 23rd Psalm quilt was sent to Korea to give strength to a pastor in need of uplifting. Our own Ruth Olbris received a special quilt which was prayed over as we petitioned the Father to hold Ruth in the palm of His great healing hands as He walks with her through her battle with cancer. Project Comfort’s goal is that the items provided to those in need cover them with our prayers, give them hope, and draw them to God so that they might experience His love and see their need of Him.
