Prayer Shawl Ministry
Our Prayer Shawl Ministry began in 2009 through the caring hands of several women in our congregation, joined by friends from the wider community. Together, they gather to knit and crochet prayer shawls for those facing illness, grief, or any significant life challenge, as well as special blankets to welcome newborns into our parish family.
