Prayer Shawls

Interested in becoming a part of this amazing ministry?
On the First Sunday of the month, we meet upstairs in the Buttaro Lounge  or in the Library 
for conversation, prayer and of course knitting. ​Come knit and pray with us as we work to wrap those in need with love.

Ministry

​This ministry has been a source of comfort and celebration for people from all over the globe.  The patterns are simple and as the cooler weather descends upon us with shorter days, it is a wonderful way to spend an evening. Kent Rogers, who has been a faithful and committed part of this ministry, has offered to spend time teaching and knitting with us.  All materials will be provided.  Help yourself to some coffee and a bagel and join us for about an hour. 

Pocket Prayer Shawls

We all know how cuddly, warm, and loving the prayers shawls are! Anyone who receives one knows that love and prayer went into every stitch. Knitting these shawls and distributing them to people who need support and encouragement is a fabulous ministry that helps so many people.​
There is another kind of prayer shawl that is easily sent to loved ones and friends in a card, or to someone in the hospital who might not be able to have a big shawl. These can also be sent to our service men and women far away. Some even went to Nigeria with our Faith Care teams! The prayer that is included with the pocket prayer shawl is as powerful and heartfelt as the one on the large shawls.
Please pick up one of the pocket prayer shawls, which are in the basket with the large shawls, and send or give it to someone you love and care about. Nothing can take the place of the large shawls that wrap people in comfort and warmth, but these can also tell someone you are thinking of them and show them that they are loved!
Every month, we give away as many shawls as we make, and if we make more, we can give away more!
If you cannot join us there are yarn, needles and directions in the Church Library.
Don't knit? We can help you learn.
Don't want to learn? We always need donations of money, yarn and supplies to continue to make the shawls.
If you are interested in participating, please contact deacon Pat at [email protected].
​For all other questions regarding donation or special prayer shawl requests, please contact the office. ​
