“I am praying for them…” (John 17:9)

Prayer is the foundation of our Faith and the foundation of Stewardship. Pray in good times and in

bad. Prayer is always the first best option in any situation, not just the last resort. Pray for friends and family and for those who don’t treat you very well. Pray to give praise, to thank, and to ask God for help. Pray to see what God wants you to do with the gifts He has given you.

PRAYER SHAWL MINISTRY

Our ministry was started 11 years ago and is still very active. Prayers are said for the recipient of each item as they are made and then are blessed by Father before being handed out. If you could use a prayer shawl, walker bag, wheelchair bag, or a tag blanket for a baby’s Baptism, please let us know. We make these for those who need to be wrapped in God’s love and our prayers.

For any questions, call Mary at 483-2171.
