The making of a prayer shawl is a spiritual practice which embodies thoughts and prayers for the receiver. It is a gift freely given with no strings attached. Made in prayer, as prayer, for prayer, the shawls are passed on hand-to-hand and heart-to-heart.

A prayer shawl or blanket embraces the recipient with the unconditional love of the Lord. It is a gift reaching out to those in need of comfort and solace as well as in celebration and joy. Prayer squares are given to those going on mission trips, working for social justice. Many blessings are prayed into every item we make.

The Newman Prayer Shawl Ministry or ...

I'm wondering about a name change. Seems as though we are getting known around Newman as "The Knitting Ninjas." Seems rather appropriate actually. We are always needing to "knit like ninjas" to meet our next goal. Hmm. Just a thought ... The Knitting Ninjas at Newman or The Newman Knitting Ninjas?
