PRAYER SHAWL

Mission:

The Mission of the Prayer Shawl ministry is to support and pray for people often known only to God. We communicate a tangible sense of God’s love with our prayers and gifts of handmade items of comfort and care.
Criteria & Expectations
Volunteer Involvement:

The prayer shawl ministry meets once a month at the church to work on our projects and pray. If you can’t make most of the meetings, that is okay - but you will miss some great fellowship!

All skill levels are welcome. We have prayers and patterns to share and love to encourage new crocheters and knitters.

How to Get Involved:

Contact Micul Ann Morse with questions or show to a monthly gathering.
