The Women’s Association and Golden Agers hope you’ll come to our next New Life for Old Bags gathering. Join us as we recycle old plastic bags and turn them into something useful – sleeping mats for the homeless. NLOB is open to all ages – women, men, girls and boys. Come out to cut, make plarn (plastic yarn), crochet mats and chat. Meet others and visit with friends while volunteering for a worthwhile cause.

NLOB collaborates with other nonprofits to make sleeping mats for the homeless. Click here to visit our New Life for Old Bags page for more information about this program.

Date: Every second Sunday of the month (note: NLOB does not meet during April, August, or October).
Time: After Service – noon to 2:30
Where: MBT Social Hall (or large conference room if Social Hall is occupied)
Bring: If you can, bring plastic bags and No. 18 crochet needles (if you have them)
Register: No need to register

Refreshments will be served and welcomed!
