St. Faith's Prayer Shawl Ministry has been active for 15 years. The members meet fortnightly to create and distribute shawls as a tangible sign of God's love and care. These shawls are made with prayers and blessings woven into each stitch, and are given to individuals in need of comfort, support, or a reminder of God's love.

Shawls are prayerfully crocheted, knitted, with love woven into every stitch. Handmade cards to accompany the shawls are hand stitched. The shawls are blessed in church and then given to recipients free of charge. The shawls are intended for those who are ill, bereaved, or need support in any way.
The ministry is open to anyone who would like to join in, whether they can knit, crochet, or simply offer prayers.
This deeply prayerful ministry goes beyond the church community. Shawls are also given to those outside of the
church who may benefit from the love and prayers.

Those who receive shawls often report feeling the warmth and comfort of them and being surrounded by love and prayer.

The group meets in St. Faith’s Community Hub every other Friday morning.
