UPCOMING EVENTS
PRAYER QUILT SQUARES
FOR THE MILITARY
Meeting the last Wednesday of the month
starting in January.
7:00 p.m., Room 109
A pocket prayer quilt for the military is a small cloth square, with a Cross sewn on the inside. It has up to 4 strings for tying prayer knots on it, and can be easily put into the recipient’s pocket. So when a soldier puts it in his or her pocket, they know that the prayers of many people are always with them.
