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.

A Really Good Website

Mary Beth sent this link to a really good website. There are lots of beautiful patterns for prayer shawls plus + plus + plus! Don't be fooled by the title, though. Look at their Blog. There is a lot in there for all of us yarn lovers. And be sure to register for their "Giveaways." I bet it will keep you busy for hours!
