Happy New Year!

 

The next meeting of the Prayer Shawl Ministry is January 6th at 5:30!  I hope to see you there.  It’s a great place to warm your heart and soul in this “bitter” cold weather.  Dinners begin tomorrow evening at 5:00, so it’s a wonderful opportunity to avoid cooking.

If you are looking for something new to make, attached are patterns for shawls made of yarn in our storage closet.

We accomplished a lot in 2009!  Please take a few minutes to reflect on our activities and provide feedback on what we did.  No doubt there are many more things we can do; however, before we add new things, let’s review our current activities to decide if we want to retain them, change them, or delete them.  In addition to providing items to individuals in needs, our activities included:

1. The Fall Festival – Country Fair Cabin

2. Grief Share Support – Shawls were given close to the holidays

3. Presentations made to:

a. Priscilla Circle

b. Grace Arbor

4. Armed Forces Care Packages – Knitted helmet liners, crocheted scarves, Prayer cloths in the packaged and help assembling packages

5. Communion Sundays – Prayer shawls, blankets on the altar rails

It would also be helpful to provide feedback on how we increase our membership and attendance. 

Your response is important to how the Prayer Shawl Ministry responds to individual’s needs in 2010. 

Love and blessings,

Beverly
