The Lutheran Women's Missionary League -- at Our Savior Lutheran Church, named Tabitha Society -- is the women's arm of the church. Its goal is mission inspiration, mission education and mission service. This is accomplished through Bible study, retreats and conventions. From time to time, inspirational speakers present programs at the meetings.

Our Tabitha Society is has a Morning Circle which meets at 9:30 a.m. on the fourth Tuesday of each month. Quarterly meetings are held the fourth Tuesday of the month at 7:30 p.m. in January, April, July and September, with a special Christmas party in December. This Christmas party for several years has been a Christmas dinner for people from the Norfolk Regional Center.

Other activities of the group have been to serve meals at the Norfolk Rescue Mission, to man the Food Pantry for a month each year, to deliver Meals on Wheels, to serve for weddings, pastoral conferences and funerals and to hold an annual rummage sale. Furnishing the church kitchen has been their special duty. The society contributes monetarily to various charitable organizations.

Each member has a mite box into which she drops her spare coins. These coins, together with those of other league members nationwide has helped to fund millions of dollars for mission projects.

The officers currently serving are:

• Barb Carstens, President
• Rosemary Goetsch, Vice-President
• Iola Louthan, Secretary
• Ieda Acklie, Treasurer
• Edie Noffke, Christian Growth
• Verda Fischer, Morning Circle Chairman

Any woman who is a member of Our Savior may become a member of the Tabitha Society.
