Five ladies, in their 80s, comprise THE SUNSHINE CIRCLE of Mount Calvary Lutheran Church on Reservation Drive here in Waynedale.

At Mount Calvary Lutheran Church, Bible Studies are held on the third Tuesday of the month (except during the summer months). Each of the ladies take turns leading the Bible study and furnishing refreshments.
During the month of May they take small gifts items to the church shut-ins.

In November, fruit, cookie and cheese plates are distributed. Along with the gifts, the ladies share information on what is happening in the church and around the area with the shut-ins.
