Mission Club

Mission Club

The St. John Nepomucene Mission Club was founded in 1957.  We are volunteers that make quilts, sort donated items, create handmade items, sell handcrafted items and so much more.  We also seek to help those in need.

All of our sales help support select local, national and international nonprofit organizations.

Join Us

Please join us anytime from 7:30 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. on Wednesdays during the months of September – May. We have five sewing machines and oodles of fabric to work with. We also have prayer time and refreshments at 9:30 a.m. and again at 2:30 p.m. We would love to have your help and join the camaraderie. If you prefer to make items in your own home, we will gladly provide you with yarn or fabric.
