This is a post from the UMW of Indiana Facebook page:
Boiler Down!! Things have changed for the Raines Residence boiler!! It literally fell apart when they tried working on it to do the repairs.  Needless to say, we do not have any choice but to install a new boiler.  Details will follow about a special project to help fund this replacement.  In the meanwhile ... Checks should be designated "boiler or as needed" in the memo line and sent to the Residence.  Keep this project in your prayers and especially for the residents who will be living without heat for about a week.  Pray for warm weather.

Christmas Open House November 7th 

Here is an email from Kathi about the shop:

For the 2nd time in our Resale Shop history, we realized monthly sales exceeding $5000. Thanks to all of our volunteers who made this happen.
A year ago in October 2013, monthly sales were $5627, of which $1235 was a direct result of jewelry/collectible sales.
This year, our October sales were $5356, of which $850 was from the jewelry/collectible sale.
So far, year-to-date sales are 3.3% ahead of last year. We have been spoiled the last 4 years with double digit growth percentages, but realistically, a 3.3% growth is better than no growth at all; at least that’s what I tell myself.
Yesterday, the dynamic duo of Marian Worden and Ruth Ann Deal got November off to a bang with $200 in sales. I believe they should work every Saturday, but they do not seem to agree with me. Go figure!
Remember that this Friday, Nov. 7th, is the Shop’s Christmas Open House. This is my personal favorite of all our special sales. I hope to see you all there and spread the word to your friends and family too.
Blessings, Kathi Thompson
