For more information email "orcoutdoors@gmail.com" . Tool Time Ministries What is Tool Time Ministry? The Bible makes it clear that there are a wide variety of “gifts” given to believers by the Holy Spirit, I Corinthians 12 and Romans 12. One of these gifts is the gift of “service” Romans 12:7. “Service” has a wide meaning, but it means “doing for others what they cannot do for themselves.” There will always be people who need help because their physical and/or financial circumstances do not allow them to do the tasks for themselves. Our members and neighbors look to the church for our help. That's where Tool Time Ministries comes in. Wit & Wisdom The Wit & Wisdom group is open to anyone who is "retired" (62 or over) and would like a place to plug in and get to know some of the other Seniors at Ottawa. We have a diverse group of people attending our events; couples, singles, widowed, or some have a spouse that doesn't care to attend. We're sure you'll feel comfortable no matter what situation you're in. We offer an assortment of events that we enjoy. Some are outings and some are held right at Ottawa Reformed Church. If you can only come to a specific event or two, or all of them, we'd love to get to know you better as we enjoy fun and fellowship together. Wit & Wisdom usually meets on the 2nd Thursday of the month but watch our church bulletin, calendar, and/or the west bulletin board in the church's lobby for exact dates on upcoming events! WOW Knitting (Winning Ottawa Women) This knitting group simply meets to knit "together" both their knitting projects and their relationships. They often make prayer shawls, or other items for those in need. WOW Knitting offers knitting and crocheting and generally meets the 1st and 3rd Monday of each month in the church library at 7:00 PM. Please watch the calendar for specific dates. Women of any age and experience level are welcome! Contact Sandy DeGlopper for more information. Kids Hope Hand2Hand
