Prayers and Squares

 

Roswell Presbyterian Church's Prayers and Squares (Chapter 249), the prayer quilt ministry, offers a prayer quilt that has ribbons that are tied with knots as prayers are said for the recipient. Prayer Quilts are given to those who have physical, emotional, or spiritual needs for prayer. The purpose of the Prayer Quilt Ministry is not to make and distribute quilts, but to promote prayer through the use of quilts. The quilt is simply the prayer carrier.

Prayers and Squares can also provide prayer squares in situations where a prayer quilt has not been requested, but a person is in need of prayer. We offer "Military Prayer Squares" which are small enough for active-duty personnel to carry in their helmets or inside their shirts.

Prayer quilts are given freely to anyone who stands in special need of prayer... the only requirements are the person agrees to receive a quilt and gives us their prayer requests.

Volunteers meet weekly on Mondays to quilt prayer quilts - quilting is done in fellowship but also can be done individually. 

If you would like to request a prayer quilt or prayer square for yourself, a family member, friend, neighbor, work colleague, or anyone (just be sure the recipient is a willing one), please contact Karen Wright or fill out the online form.

Prayer Shawl Ministry

Prayer Shawl Ministry Volunteers meet weekly on Tuesday afternoons to knit or crochet shawls, blankets, and lap robes. Knitting and crocheting is mostly done in fellowship with other Roswell Presbyterian Church members, but individuals may bring finished items to the group. After a prayer by name, a prayer shawl is delivered to those recently sick or in surgery. Roswell Presbyterian Church members may request that one be delivered.
