Prayer Shawl Ministry
What is it?
The Prayer Shawl Ministry brings comfort and prayerful support to those experiencing illness, loss, loneliness, or difficult times. Members of the ministry knit or crochet shawls, which are then blessed and distributed to individuals in need, including those in hospitals, hospices, or receiving pastoral care. Over the past four years, this ministry has lovingly created and given out over 1,060 shawls.
How to Volunteer
The Prayer Shawl Ministry welcomes new members who enjoy knitting or crocheting. You can work from home at your own pace and contribute to this beautiful expression of care and support.
