4th & 5th Grades Learn how to make Candles

Many thanks to the wonderful ladies at The Refinery for coming to Grace and teaching our 4th and 5th graders how to make their own candles.  They had a wonderful time learning about the process and about the mission of The Refinery and Still Waters.

The ladies of Still Waters create hand poured soy candles at their shop (The Refinery)  in downtown Bainbridge.  Still Waters is a temporary home for displaced women and their children.  Proceeds from The Refinery help support their home and their misson.
