Soap making by Loyal church women endures yearly effort
At Trinity Lutheran in Loyal about a dozen women render lard and mix lye to craft soap for World Relief. They recall 15 years of annual soap days, improving through trial and error from early 112 batches to 58 this year. The process involves rain covers, careful cooling, and curing before packing for shipment.
