Participants of the All Saints Prayer Shawl Ministry will find a new way to connect with God – through their knitting, crocheting, and looping. They will combine their love of these arts into a prayerful ministry that reaches out to those in need of comfort. Prayer becomes meditation and an awareness of God’s presence in our lives. The actual knitting and crocheting of the shawl becomes a prayerful practice. Many blessings will be knitted into every shawl, as a tangible symbol of God's inclusive unconditional love of the shawl recipient. Our product is a shawl but our purpose is prayer.
Shawls or lap-ghans can be requested by a parishioner for someone they know who is in need of prayer, comfort, and/or a hug from God. Shawls will be gifted for many reasons, not just illness, and they are gifted to men, woman & children.
Please join us if you knit, crochet, loop or if you would like to learn. We meet in the Parish Hall weekly on Monday mornings, from 9:00 am – 11:00 am.
