Our Group Makes Crocheted and Knitted Shawls.   

  

We sit in a circle and each person silently prays for blessings upon the recipient of each shawl. 

  

Our group meets Wednesdays at 5:30 PM in the Library. 

You are welcome to join us.

We have been in existence here at St. Paul for several years.  During that time we have given in excess of 600 shawls. 

We have approximately 8 to 12 ladies either knitting or crocheting during our 1 1/2 hours on each Wednesday night.  It is a wonderful time of praying, visiting, exchanging patterns, discussing, and most of all, fun. 

Shawls may be given for: undergoing medical procedures; as a comfort after a loss or in times of stress; during bereavement; baptism; and ordination.  

We would like your help.  If you know of anyone who would benefit from receiving one of our prayer shawls, please submit their name in the box outside the sanctuary, along with their particular need and any other clue (favorite color, stature, etc.) that would help us choose a shawl.  You may also give the name of someone who needs a shawl to a member of the Prayer Shawl Ministry or to one of the church staff. Maybe you would like to choose a shawl and present it yourself!  We always pray over the shawl and package it with a card. 

We welcome anyone who would care to join our group.  We meet in the Library every Wednesday from 5:30 to 7:00 PM.  In Christian love, St. Paul Prayer Shawl Ministry
