Prayer Shawl Ministry

Prayer Shawl Knitting Ministry
Blanket those in our community in Prayer, Healing and Love.

kathleen-knit_0Do you like to knit or crochet?
We use the craft of knitting/crocheting to create shawls for those in the community who might derive comfort, warmth, and spiritual sustenance from them. People such as the homebound, chronically ill, those experiencing a crisis, and a mom with a first baby are typical recipients.

Our parish knitters pray and knit shawls.  Prayer & spiritual support fill the shawls distributed to parishioners experiencing temporary challenges. To get a broader perspective on what this is all about, visit: www.shawlministry.com
We attach this note: “Crocheted by hand and threaded with prayers of love and hope, this item is a gift to you.  May it bring blessings of comfort, gifts of warmth and the knowledge that you are loved.   – St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, Prayer Shawl Ministry”
