Prayer Shawl Ministry

Do you knit or crochet? If not, would you like to learn? Join us on Monday afternoons in the Parlor from 1:30 to 2:45 pm. We knit, crochet, chat and laugh. We are Rockport's Prayer Shawl Ministry. If you are not familiar with Prayer Shawls, they are shawls or blankets, knit or crocheted and blessed when finished. Rockport then wraps the finished shawls in tissue paper and gives them away. Shawls are given in celebration or as comfort. Please join us!
