“Shawls … They wrap, enfold, comfort, cover, give solace, mother, hug, shelter and beautify.”
— Janet Severi Bristow, 1998
Prayer shawl. Peace shawl. Comfort shawl. Mantle. Whatever name you give them, they serve the same purpose. These are a wearable hug crafted with love and intent from maker to recipient. Whether it be personal words, verse, song, prayer, mantra, or something else, it is these thoughts imbued in the shawl with each stitch that make them what they are.
Heart of Longmont is in need of more prayer shawls to give to those in need of comfort and to place in the Sanctuary. Calling on those who knit, crochet or sew!! Items can be dropped off at the church office or on Sundays. Click here to download instructions or grab a copy from the Hospitality Desk in the Gallery. Feel free to share!
