SABBATH SNAPSHOTS: Prayers & Squares

12/19/13 Prayers & Squares. What a ministry of Roswell Presbyterian in Georgia!
The church quilters create prayer quilts for those in need. These tie quilts have an extra facet---extra ribbons to be tied by pray-ers. Those praying people include not only the quilters and other church members but also the recipient's family and friends as well. Prayers over the quilt for the one who will receive it begin at its inception and are continued each step and journey through the church itself.
A quilt created with love, hope and prayers.

Prayerfully sent, those prayers are continued at the recipient's home. That's how I came to tie a square knot on the "perfect" color and theme quilt of my special friend and sister in the Lord, Claudia. Thanks to Aunt Mary Manhardt and the quilting ministry along with  the pastors, staff and congregation of Roswell Presbyterian Church for that prayer privilege.




In loving memory of Claudia Lee Roberts Parlow---August 12, 1944-November 30, 2013
