Prayer Shawl

1st Tuesday of the month 9:30am – 11:30am
3rd Tuesday of the month 7:30pm – 9:30pm

Shawls have been made throughout the centuries; they wrap, enfold, comfort, cover, give solace, hold in a hug, shelter, and beautify. The Prayer Shawls made at St. George’s are skillfully created as part of our outreach program. They are created to be given to those in any kind of need of comfort in times of illness, bereavement, or in celebration, such as a baptism or marriage. We believe our hands are God’s Hands. Through the Prayer Shawl ministry, we learn to trust the truth that God works through us when we care for friends and strangers alike.
