Prayer Shawl Ministry
The prayer shawl ministry (knitters and crocheters) meets in the prayer room on the first and third Thursdays of each month, from 1:00-3:00pm.  If you are unable to attend the meeting but still want to participate, contact the office to be included on email communications. 

Prayer shawls are made full of prayers for the recipients. Our hope is that when the shawl is worn, they can feel the warmth of Jesus’ support, guidance and love. 
 If you know of someone who would benefit from receiving a prayer shawl, please contact the Zion office.
