Prayer Quilt Ministry
Meetings | First Saturday of the month
Prayer Team | Third Wednesday of the month | 9:00 am | Zoom
Who we are: Chapter 78 of Prayers and Squares – The Prayer Quilt Ministry. We formed over twenty years ago and our chapter has provided over 2100 prayer quilts to people in need over that time period.
What we do: We make lap-sized quilts which are bound together with pearl cotton floss. When someone is in need of prayer, a quilt is requested, placed in front of the Sanctuary, and the people of the church “tie in prayers” by tying a knot in the floss as they pray.
Why we do it: We believe in the power of prayer, and we are grateful for our ability to use our time and talent to serve God while also enjoying the special relationships that have developed over the years. We believe that it is important that people have a tangible reminder that people are praying for them in whatever they are going through. Our guiding motto is; It’s not about the Quilt, it’s about the Prayers.
