The mission of the Saintly Stitchers of Our Lady is to share, in a tangible way, expressions of the love and compassion of Jesus through the creation and sharing of Prayer Shawls. Lovingly woven into the shawls are prayers for the receiver of God’s ever-present love, comfort and healing. The reasons vary for gifting a Prayer Shawl: a long-term illness, a crisis, grieving the death of a loved one, grieving the death of a marriage through divorce, those in care facilities, or anyone in need of a tangible expression of God’s love and care.
