Justice Ministry Team Meeting
Platte Woods Justice Ministry Team (JMT) is working toward a world where inclusion, diversity and the well-being of all people are not just dreams, but realities!
We are motivated by the words of Micah 6:8, which call us “… to do justice and to love kindness and to walk humbly with your God,” and are further spurred to action by the words of John Wesley, “Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can.”
The Justice Ministry Team is currently exploring the topics of human sexuality, race relations and community organizing.
Event Contact: Brandi Molina - Please contact Brandi if you are interested in learning more about the Justice Ministry Team or if you are planning to attend a meeting for the first time.
Threads of Faith
Anyone interested in joining a team that enjoys company while they knit or crochet. The goal is to provide shawls that have been prayed over as they are created that can then be distributed to new babies, wedding couples, and anyone going through a challenging time. Beginners welcome!

Blankets of Hope
If you enjoy quilting, or just want to learn how, please join our current quilting group. Each blanket is lovingly and prayerfully prepared to be shared with graduating youth, new infants, nursing home residents, and others going through trials. We’ve even sent some to Pine Ridge for their cold winters! Along with piecing together the quilts, we enjoy the laughter and fellowship of the group experience.
