More Shawls Blessed, More to Go

On Sunday, November 26, another group of prayer shawls were blessed during worship. Co-Leaders Betty Smith and Marlene Tordoff were invited to come forward to lay hands on the shawls, as well as others who have made shawls as the whole church said a prayer of blessing. Marlene also spoke some about the ministry and encouraged anyone who has been thinking of getting involved to come on out the 2nd Thursday of the month (next meeting in January). There are plenty of folks there who can teach you how to knit if you don't know how! Another way to serve is by donating yarn to the group. You can contact Marlene or Betty for more information.

Almost all of the shawls that were blessed in the Spring have been given out, and have been exactly what their name implies: a real blessing. And more shawls have been completed since the blessing last Sunday! Thank you to all who have made shawls or donated yarn.

The next meeting will take place January 11th during Arts and Crafts night.
