Prayer Shawl Ministry

This ministry meets weekly to knit or crochet prayer shawls that are blessed and
then given to comfort anyone who is ill or grieving. As we knit, we think of and pray
for those who will be comforted by the shawls. You may pick up a shawl from a bin
in the ushers closet off the main entrance of the church.
We have also been making prayer squares. These have been made with the idea that,
if a shawl is too cumbersome for someone, the square could be held in the hand and bring
comfort to the person holding it. The prayer squares are in a small basket on a table in the
main entrance. You will also see a prayer to go with the square.
We invite anyone who might be interested in joining us. We are happy to teach you. This is a
Ministry that can be done at home. If interested please call Maria Mellone at 245-2023 or
Irene Vergelli at 323-5584
