A prayer covering is a quilt or shawl that is given to persons who are ill, have suffered a loss or are in the midst of a crisis in order to offer comfort. Before the covering is delivered, it is prayed over by the Prayer Covering Ministry team who created it and others in the church family. Prayers ask for blessings and peace for the recipient of the covering. Since the beginning of the ministry in January 2004, over 250 prayer coverings have been delivered.

We meet on the 2nd Monday of each month at 6:00 PM in the Hallelujah Center. Our meetings last about one hour during which we share projects and pray over completed quilts and shawls. Beginners are welcome, and we will be happy to share tips and help you get started on a project. (We do not meet in November or December or on a church holiday.)
