prayer shawl ministry

Please join us in this new ministry, founded in December of 2019! Members of our ministry will prayerfully craft items of comfort, peace and inspiration for those in need or for special sacramental occasions. We will make prayer shawls, lap and wheelchair afghans, baptismal blankets, chemo caps, premie caps, and prayer cloths.

We will meet on the first Saturday of each month, from 10am to noon, in the new classroom downstairs off Keresey Hall. Please join us as we pray and work together. There will be an opportunity to learn new skills, interpret patterns, and share fellowship with other yarn enthusisasts.

If you would like more information about this special ministry, please email Cindy Murphy.

Do you or someone you know need an item of comfort from our ministry? Our shawls, lap and wheelchair afghans, chemo caps and prayer cloths are made with love and prayers to bring peace and healing to those suffering from physical, mental and spiritual ailments. Please call the rectory at 508-476-2002 x1 or use the form below to request an appointment to choose one of our hand-made items of comfort.
