Prayer Shawl ministry

 
 

1-3:00 p.m. Wednesday - Fidelis Room

 
 

Our Purpose:

 
 

To provide a physical reminder of the prayers and love surrounding an individual.

"Shawls...have been made for centuries, universal and embracing, symbolic of an inclusive, unconditionally loving, God.  They wrap, enfold, comfort, cover, and give solace.  They mother, hug, shelter and comfort.  We pray that those who receive a prayer shawl are uplifted and affirmed, as if given wings to fly above their troubles...into the compassionate care of our Lord!"  The color's used in these shawls are meaningful with each representing a different characteristic.

 

 
 

All knitters and/or crocheters interested in the Prayer Shawl Ministry are welcome to attend weekly meetings in the Fidelis room from 1-3 p.m. on Wednesday's.   If you do not knit or crochet but would like to learn, we will help.  Also, if you know of someone in need of comforting and prayer, please contact one of the group members and let them know.
