Hands to Hearts Prayer Shawl ministry

Our congregation has a wonderful Prayer Shawls ministry. Prayer shawls, blankets, quilts, pocket squares, etc. were collected for this year and dedicated on Sunday, June 1. Please feel free to drop donations off at church any time so our congregation can share in the blessing of these symbols of God’s love and compassion.
