MITE UPDATE - September 2025
Thanks to your faithful giving, we received $7,881.97 in August for mites, bringing our biennium total to $164,814.19. If we continue at an average of $13,148 each month, we will reach our $270,000 goal by April 25, 2026.
Our mites now support 46 mission grants. As we pray for these ministries with thankful hearts, let’s joyfully share our mites—so that through these grants, more people may come to know Christ.
Twenty-five percent of our mite contributions help support the 33 national mission grants selected by the delegates and announced at the June 2025 LWML Convention in Omaha; they also help with LWML operating expenses. Seventy-five percent of our mite contributions stay in our district and fund the 13 mission grants approved at our June 2024 LWML Minnesota South District Convention in Mankato.
Please continue to send mites, memorials, and other money for the district (except Equalization and Quarterlies) to Carol Henning, Financial Secretary, 1548 Grant St., Jackson, MN 56143. Make checks payable to LWML Minnesota South District. The Report of Contribution forms are available on our mnslwml.org website under Resources. There are different forms for zones, groups, and individual members.
Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God
(Hebrews 13:16).

WHAT IS A MITE BOX?
It's a cardboard box (3-1/8" x 1-3/4" x 2-1/4") designed by LWML to receive thank offerings above and beyond our regular church giving. It holds pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, dollars, and checks.
Mite boxes are FREE and can be used by LWML members, their families, and friends. Ask any LWML member about the box. Take it home and place it wherever you can feed it: dressing table, office desk, laundry room, kitchen counter, or even the car etc.
