Prayers and Squares Chapter 968

Picture
Motto: It’s not about the Quilt…It’s all about the Prayers.

Chapter #968 of Prayers and Squares was organized at John Stewart UMC on June 14, 2010.  Ours is a caring ministry, not a celebratory one.  Prayer quilts are appropriate for anyone who is experiencing physical, emotional, spiritual, or some other life crisis, and who feels they could benefit from being 'covered in prayer' with the quilt being a tangible sign of God's ever present Grace, available to all of us. We share in the task together on Mondays from 9:30 a.m. - noon at John Stewart UMC.  We have completed and distributed over 227 prayer quilts to folks living in our area since 2010. Their response has shown the gratitude we all feel to be a part of this ministry together.
