Prayer Shawl Ministry

 

Grape vines

A New Caring Ministry

"Shawls...made for centuries universal and embracing, symbolic of an inclusive, unconditionally loving God. They wrap. enfold, comfort, cover, give solace, mother, hug, shelter and beautify. Those who have received these shawls have been uplifted and affirmed, as if given wings to fly above their troubles"... This is written by Janet Bristow a graduate of the 1997 Woman's Leadership Institute at the Hartford Seminary in Hartford, Connecticut. She and Victoria Galo gave birth to this ministry as a result of their experience in a program of applied Feminist Spirituality. Compassion and the love of knitting/crocheting has been combined into a prayful ministry and spiritual experience for those who participate in this amazing ministry
