STOCKING FOR SOUTH LAKE


 Once again, United Methodist Women can accomplish more together than individually. The Clermont unit produced 80 Christmas stockings and hats for the newborns at South Lake Hospital.  Many women were involved in the various steps in the process such as cutting, sewing knitting, assembling and delivering the finished product. Thanks to these 80 new parents will know that their family is loved by our Lord and the United Methodist Women.
