Blessing Prayer Shawls

May God's grace be upon this shawl...warming, comforting, enfolding, and embracing. May this mantle be a safe haven...a sacred place of security and well-being...sustaining and embracing in good times as well as difficult ones. May the one who receives this shawl be cradled in hope, kept in joy, graced with peace, and wrapped in love. ---Janet Bristow, (c) 2000

 
Our Prayer Shawl Ministry continues to be a blessing to many.  Our group of dedicated knitters has knitted, prayed over, blessed, and delivered over 100  prayer shawls. These prayer shawls are delivered to  people  needing comfort and support during a variety of life situations.
 
We generally meet the second and fourth Thursdays of the month from 7:00-8:30 pm at the home of one of our church members.  PLEASE REFER TO THE CHURCH CALENDAR TO CONFIRM SCHEDULE AND CONTACT THE CHURCH OFFICE FOR DIRECTIONS. Anyone is welcome to join us in this special ministry. When you come, we can teach you to knit and/or help you get started on a prayer shawl. We have knitting needles and yarn for beginners. All you have to do is come!
 
Please continue to pray for the Prayer Shawl Ministry. If you have a request for a prayer shawl for a loved one who is experiencing a life changing event, or if you have questions about this ministry, please contact the church office. 

For You created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Psalm 139:13-14 (NIV)
