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.

Only 24 days until November 16-17 -- our Craft Fair and Bake Sale

Our craft fair and bake sale will be held earlier than expected as posted previously. This year we had a hard time finding a good date for our sale. Thanksgiving is late; football games interfere with our 5:15 very generous and supportive crowd and then there are exams.

November 16-17 the new dates for our sale. All items are hand-crafted. We have beautiful scarves and cowls and moebius scarves, ladder necklaces, doggie bandanas made with reflective yarn for late evening dog-walking, dishtowel toppers with mug rugs, slipper socks, a most lovely shrug. and much more. We will have mini loaves of freshly made breads, cookies, and jars of spiced pecans. There will be some very unique and one-of-a-kind items available only at this sale. Come early for the best selection.

Support the students of the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill and the Alternative Spring Break trips working for social justice.
