Quilting

Lutheran World Relief

During these unprecedented times, we ask you to consider making direct donations to The River or Sunshine Place food pantries, so that families who are faced with economic hardship due to COVID can get immediate assistance. Please give generously, many people who count on lunch programs or face lay offs are going to need a lot of help in the weeks ahead.

We actively participate in Stewardship projects through Lutheran World Relief. Quilts, School Kits, Baby Care Kits and Personal Care Kits are assembled each year.  

            In 2023 we sent to Lutheran World Relief:

78 Quilts

150 School Kits

75 Personal Care Kits


We are currently gathering supplies for the 2024 year for Personal Care Kits and School Kits.

​Prayer Shawls

Burke Lutheran Church

Members of the congregation have been knitting or crocheting prayer shawls for distribution at area hospitals.. With our proximity to the University of Wisconsin Orthopedic Hospital they have become a recipient of many of these


If you're interested in participating in this ministry we have patterns available. Completed shawls can be left with Pastor Rob for distribution.
