     Prayer Shawl Ministry                                                  Rm. 32

Our prayer shawl ministry is a group of ladies that knit and crochet blankets, shawls, bookmarks and anything you can imagine but once a week they come together to pray over each loop trusting that their finished product will go to someone in need of a prayer shawl. They make several shawls upon request and have many ready made until the right person is in need of the Holy Spirit's spiritual and physical healing is brought to their attention. In addition to each of the makers' prayers, each of the prayer shawls are prayed over by our congregation members upon completion.
