It's all very much appreciated. Our ministry is a family of loved ones who get together to do God's work!! Those who receive our shawls and knit or crochet them are truly loved and blessed!

The vision of our ministry is to combine the care and love of knitting and crocheting into a prayerful ministry which reaches out to those in need of comfort and solace. We deliver our shawls to our sick relatives and friends. If you are adding a loved one to the Sick Relatives and friends list or asking for their names to be added to the prayer of the faithful ~ You should also consider asking the Parish Center for a Prayer Shawl. As we begin our 4th year together our Prayer Shawl family have given out 310 shawls.
If you have sent us a photograph or thank you letter you will be able to view it in our memory books at our Ministry Fair. Our first meeting of the year will be September 15th at 7 PM in our Parish Center! This is a very rewarding ministry, those who knit, crochet and receive these shawls are truly loved and Blessed.
