SUMC's Prayer Shawl Ministry, Blessed Creations



Thank you to everyone who participated in SUMC’s prayer shawl ministry, Blessed Creations, in 2013!  What a wonderful way to show love and compassion to others during difficult times!!

A prayer shawl can communicate the gift of prayer to others, reach beyond our walls and into the community and be a tangible reminder of God’s love and comfort during a time of need. Honestly, is there ever a time when prayer is not needed?  Prayer shawls have been provided to friends and loved ones for a variety of reasons: preparation for or recovery from surgery,illness, death of a loved one.. just to name a few.  The possibilities are endless!

DO you know someone who could be blessed with a reminder of God’s love during a difficult time?  These shawls are kept in the church office and even come with a beautiful poem that   explains the intent of the shawl (so helpful when our words fail us!). Of course, the supply of shawls is heavily dependent on the number of servants contributing to this special ministry. However, the Lord provides!

Want to get involved? If you would like to know more about how you can SERVE in this    ministry through your gift for knitting or crocheting, contact Felicia Stewart through the church office 317-784-9508.
