A group of ladies gathers together to knit the shawls. We meet twice a month on the second and fourth Thursdays. Anybody can come to learn to knit or crochet to make a prayer shawl. As soon as a prayer shawl is finished, we pray over it and offer comfort to people who are hurting for various reasons. It could be the loss of a loved one or a serious health issue, loss of a job, or numerous other issues. Every time we pick up our knitting, we say a little prayer, “that whoever receives this shawl may they be comforted by its warmth and know that others care and that God loves them.”
