Prayer Shawl Ministry
Do you like knitting?
Then you may want to join the ladies in our Prayer Shawl Ministry.
Prayer Shawls, sometimes called comfort shawls, peace shawls, or mantles, are intended to be a reminder of God’s ever-present love.
Shawls have been made for centuries; they wrap, enfold, comfort, cover, give solace, shelter and beautify.
