On Sunday May 10, the Hooks and Needles for God group filled the altar rail with a colorful and soft array of blankets. Hooks and Needles makes these blankets to be given to people in times of special need; illness, births, or just when someone needs to know that the church is surrounding them in prayer.
During the service, members gathered around the altar rail to pray over these blankets. The people receiving these blankets is not yet known (by us anyway…), but the prayers were made on behalf of those who will eventually be wrapped in the love and prayers symbolized by the blankets and shawls.
Come if you can or you can crochet or knit from home.
Please notify Sue Simmons if you know of someone who could use a prayer shawl or if you have any questions.
