Silent Auction: $1,747
Church and WELCA donations: $2,150
Meal offering: $798

Thrivent Support: $3,000
The total minus expenses is over $25,000.
Thank you so much for your part in making this great fundraiser possible.
Awards and Winners
 The Quilter's Choice Award given out at the Appreciation Dinner was given to Virginia Scheffert who 'recycled' a partially stitched top-'Grandmother's Flower Garden' and hand quilted it to make an outstanding quilt. We appreciate all of her hard work and support of Red Willow Ministries.
 The Auctioneer's Choice Award was awarded by Shelley Halvorson and Nikki Boote. The winning quilts were 'Snow Churn' made by Lorraine Edlund, and 'Sudoku' made by Connie Iverson and donated by Trinity Lutheran of Binford.
 The Bidder's Choice Award went to Lorraine Edlund for her lovely quilt, 'Snow Churn'. Everyone at the Quilt Auction with a bid number was eligible to vote for this coveted prize.
 The winner of the quilt raffle was Rubie Brintnell, a member at Our Savior's in Devils Lake. Our appreciation goes out to all who purchased tickets, and to Joan Slusser, Nancy McKinnon and Terry Dramstad for the lovely quilt.
