Here at FLC, we celebrate Women’s Christmas Friday, January 10; 5:30 — 8 p.m. Beginning with a simple meal, we will then meet three Irish wise women, Gobnait, Ita, and Brigid, who will share with us gifts of healing, vision, and protection. Cost: $10 for food and gifts. Please register online at firstlutherancr.org/women or by contacting Deborah (319.365.1494/deborahh@firstlutherancr.org).
