Sisters In Service meet every Monday from 9-11:30 a.m. in Building B. Simply show up for an opportunity to fellowship with some sweet ladies while serving the "least of these" (Matthew 25:24-40).
The Lord is working through the Sisters in Service (SIS) Ministry at Mesquite Church of Christ. SIS has been meeting and making items since 1998 producing approximately 1,200 items a year for Children's Hospital, Texas Cancer Centers, Mesquite Area Nursing Homes and other various Hospitals and Children's Homes. They also make wedding quilts for our newlyweds and baby quilts for our new babies in the congregation. During the holidays each year, SIS delivers lap quilts to one of our area nursing homes. The ladies get the opportunity to go from room to room visiting with each resident and giving them a lap quilt. It is their "feel good day of the year".
This ministry helps not only the recipients, but the ladies working together for the Lord. It offers a very gratifying way of serving others. The fellowship of being together with other Christian ladies and serving others is a wonderful blessing!
SIS has been honored by being nominated by Children's Hospital and becoming a finalist in the Dallas County Volunteer Group of the Year Award, plus an additional award for their annual Volunteer Group of the Year. SIS was also a finalist in the American Cancer Society's Caring Spirit Award.
