This class will look at encouraging words from the Bible that will warm your heart, but also equip you to share these words with others when they are downhearted. This will start as an online class via Zoom (Passcode 001245) and later transition to a hybrid class. A link to handouts for each class is available on our website.

Ministry Spotlight – Prayer Shawl Ministry – The Prayer Shawl Ministry is the combination of needlework and prayer to make beautiful prayer shawls for those in great need. Prayer shawls demonstrate love, caring, comfort, encouragement, and hope for the people who receive them. As we make the prayer shawls, we find ourselves growing closer to God and increasing the fruits of the Spirit. Creating prayer shawls fosters spiritual growth to craft, to give, and to receive. In addition to prayer shawls, our ministry makes baby blankets, hats, scarves, and other works. All are welcome and instruction is provided. The most important part is weaving prayers into your work. “Cradled in hope, kept in joy, graced with peace and wrapped in love. Blessed be.” If you are interested in being a part of this ministry, please sign up (Circle of Care Ministry Signup) or contact Rev. Katie.
