Heart to Heart Quilters

The Heart to Heart Quilters strive to follow the example of our Lord Jesus Christ to comfort the afflicted by providing quilts to children ages 17 years and younger with catastrophic illnesses or in difficult social situations. They pray as they stitch love into every quilt. There are morning and evening groups. Join the quilters on Thursdays, 9:30 am or 5:30 pm at 115 Winsted House on our campus. The Heart to Heart Ministry shared over 750 quilts with hospitals, crisis centers, and other children in crisis last year alone. If you have never quilted, we will teach you. If you already have basic sewing or quilting skills, we will help you get started making children's quilts. You don’t need to bring any supplies to your first meeting, we will supply what you need to get started. Come and join us morning or evening!
