Our “Needle” Ministries are open to anyone who has the skills to sew, knit or crochet or who would like to learn how. Whether you knit or crochet quickly or slowly, your help is welcome to fulfill the mission of spreading God’s love through our craft. It is our hope that those who receive our crafts will feel the love that goes into making each and every one of them. Our time together begins and ends with prayer and all creations are prayed over and blessed prior to being gifted.

Need a prayer shawl or lap blanket for yourself or someone else? Please contact Laura Pentland, Betty Catelli or Patricia Mirante.

The Knit, Crochet, and Sew Good Works Group and the Prayer Shawl Ministry recently entered a number of their creations in the needlework competition at the Berlin Fair, September 2025.  Many of the items won prizes.  The prize money will be used for supplies for more creations, which are donated to local charities.
