Prayer Shawl MinistryPrayer shawls are handcrafted gifts, specifically made to offer hope and comfort to those in need of the warmth of God. Shawls are given as a remembrance of God's blessing and abiding love. Makers of the prayer shawls offer the hope that the receiver may be wrapped in warmth, as a way to experience and remember God's healing love. With each prayer shawl is a card telling the receiver that while skilled hands were creating the shawl, special prayers for the receiver were being offered.We always need shawls of different shapes, sizes or colors. Your shawl can be knitted, crocheted, knotted, or woven - it's up to you! All are welcome to join us in this ministry. Join us the first and third Mondays of the month to learn more about this ministry, select a shawl for someone in need, or pick up yarn for knitting or crocheting. Donations are accepted and appreciated. Please contact Christa Lucas or Maryanne Quirk for more information or to request a prayer shawl for a loved one.
