***The knitters are not meeting at this time due to the pandemic. You are asked to keep up your good works at home - items are still needed. Thank you! Stay tuned for notices when knitters will reconvene.***
You’ll find them every Thursday afternoon in our Parish Meeting Room. They’re a not so quiet group intent on their craft. Offering smiles to old and new friends alike, and working their fingers tirelessly as they share their talent through their Knitting Needles. This ministry works through both heart and hands. Their gifts bring warmth and comfort to those who receive.
Our Knitting Ministry is made up of a group of dedicated women who take time each week to focus on Knitted Gifts for our community. Our Knitting Ministry has donated over 1000 items this past year. Gifts range from prayer shawls, infant hats & booties, lap blankets, sweaters, and hats & mittens. The love and prayers that accompany these knitted gifts are priceless.
Many of our own parishioners have been gifted with one of this Ministry’s beautiful prayer shawls. These shawls have brought warmth and comfort to parishioners going through difficult medical treatments and to parishioners who are mourning the death of a loved one. Other recipients of Knitted Gifts include local hospitals, Veterans Homes, Hospice House, Homeless Shelters, and the Salvation Army.
Thank you to each member of our Knitting Ministry for the time you give, the talent you share, and for the prayers you so generously offer.
The Knitting Ministry meets every Friday afternoon from September until June
