Prayer Shawl
Our Prayer Shawl Ministry is an extension of the same ministry established in 1998 by Janet Bristow and Victoria A. Cole-Galo, graduates of the Women's Leadership Institute at Hartford Seminary in Hartford, Connecticut.
Much like these knitted and crocheted mantles grow one stitch at a time, this spiritual practice has organically grown and spread throughout the community. As the yarn passes through our hands, we pray for the recipient of each piece, whether the person is known to us or not. Our spiritual lives deepen from our meditations as we create the shawls, and we continue to forge new connections in our prayer and process of giving prayer shawls.
Prayer shawls are given for comfort or celebration; to mark life changes; and in love and friendship. They symbolize loving hugs, being surrounded by prayer, and the shelter of God's care. Patterns and colors are not chosen just for beauty, but often because of their particular symbolic meanings. To learn more, explore the official website of this outreach.
​
Prayer shawl meets twice a month on the first Thursday at 10 AM, and the third Thursday at 5:30 PM.

All ages are welcome!
