» PRAYER SHAWL MINISTRY»
Our Vision:
For hearts and lives to be touched, healed and encouraged by receiving a knitted or crocheted prayer shawl/lap robe that has been made by loving hands and praying hearts.
To provide an enjoyable, inspirational atmosphere for people to gather, minister, build relationships and be blessed while creating shawls that will bring love, comfort and peace to others in need.
“God did extraordinary miracles through Paul,
so that even handkerchiefs and aprons were taken to the sick, and their illnesses were cured and the evil spirits left them.” - Acts 19:11
