Scripture: John 15: 9 &#8211; 11. Hymn: \u201cJoys Are Flowing Like a River\u201d. At a time of great stress in Katherine\u2019s young adult life, she envisioned \u201cJoy &#8211; if not now, when?\u201d . This calmed her, bringing wonder, curiosity, and humor.&nbsp; Her discovery of joy continued to enhance Katherine\u2019s spiritual development throughout her life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Minutes:<\/strong>&nbsp;Susan&nbsp;read the 6.17.\u201924 minutes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Treasurer\u2019s Report:&nbsp;<\/strong>As of our meeting, we had received $410 in donations for jam, earmarked for LACO. We have a balance of $490.96, with $410 for LACO, leaving $80.96 available. We need to pay dues ($5 per member) and for Blueprints. A separate donation for Dorothy&#8217;s relish earned $80, to put toward buying new tablecloths. We discussed donating to Getry Agizah\u2019s program to support education for African youth. Nancy will request an additional contribution from the&nbsp; Charity Fund. Money gained from a silent auction in November could support Tedford.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Prayer&#8217;s:&nbsp;<\/strong>For Friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tedford Meal:<\/strong>&nbsp;Team D prepared hot dogs,&nbsp; potato salad and ice cream on&nbsp;September 2.
