Thank you to Lana Esch for sharing her talent in making the small baptismal cloths used at each baptism and given to the parents of the child. These fine linen cloths used to be made by Millie Tessman, a longtime Mt. Olive member who passed away a few years ago. Because we have been blessed with many baptisms in the last few years, we were in need of more. They are a wonderful reminder of each child's baptism!
