Prayer Shawl Ministry
Do you like to crochet or knit? Sew or do needlework? Everyone welcome! We meet on the 1st and 3rd Thursdays. We will make shawls, lap blankets, baby blankets, etc for those in need. Care and the love of knitting (and crochet) have been combined into a prayerful ministry that reaches out to those in need of comfort and solace. Many blessings are knitted into every shawl. The knitter begins each shawl with prayers for the recipient. Intentions are continued throughout the creation of the shawl. When the shawl is completed it is offered a final ritual before being sent along its way.
Those seeking company to do their needlework are invited to join us. We take donations of yarn also. For those who want to learn, Madeline has offered to give beginner crochet lessons.
Next Meeting is Thursday, May 1st, at 7:00 p.m. in the Social Hall.
