Comfy Cozies

Prayer Shawls are handmade knitted, crocheted, or quilted shawls made by members of our congregation. The shawls are displayed on a quilt rack in the front of the sanctuary for our congregation to pray over the shawls. Our Visitation Pastor delivers a shawl to someone during his home and hospital visits. Congregation members can also take a shawl to a friend in need of prayers. Being wrapped in a shawl brings comfort to those in need when they cannot join us in church. For more information, please contact Gail Green. |
