St. Matters
SAINT MATTERS Closes Shop - For the last six years a faithful group of ladies have been meeting once a week cutting and loop-ing together pieces of plastic to make into plarn balls, that would become a plastic mat for a homeless person to use for sleeping. Now, after 6 years, we have not been able to get enough people to crochet the plastic plarn; so, sadly, we are going to stop making plastic mats. Our surplus supplies have been taken to The Senior Group in Libertyville, who also make mats. In 6 years, we made 105 mats that were taken to the Police Department in Milwaukee to be distributed to homeless people. Thank you to Pastor and Deb Kinne for always getting the mats to Police Officer Chad.
I, also, want to thank all who faithfully brought their plastic bags for us to use for this project, and the following people who helped with mats over the last six years: Mary Lou Berrie, Gail Cooper, Karen Basler, Bev Eastep, Sally Henning, Marge Meyer, Pilar Norenberg, Margaret Polnau, Ellen Whers, Sandy Wunlock, Deanna and Eric Hagan, and Gene and Maria Bunte. - Helen Burnidge
