Spiritual Ministry :: Prayer Shawl Ministry

Carole Merrill
Claire DiBona

This ministry is for women who knit or crochet. Prayer Shawls are made in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit with Faith, Hope and Love to bring Comfort, Peace and Joy to the recipient.

This ministry creates Shawls for children and adults who are in need of comfort and support in times of sickness, death or any other difficulty they may be experiencing. Prayers for the recipients are prayed by the members of this ministry as they create these items. Also they create small blankets that can be used for Pregnant mothers – for safe deliveries and healthy babies – for births, Baptisms or difficulties after birth (such as a premature delivery) – also for Brides and First Communicants. The items are given at no cost and can be requested through the office or through the ministry itself as found in the bulletin.
