New Name for Shawl Ministry

I (your humble web master and shawl ministry participant) have been calling our gathering "Grace's Shawl Ministry" simply because I needed something to call it on Facebook, Twitter, the web site, and here on the Outreach Blog. At our last meeting we discussed the listing on the shawl ministry web site. That led us to a discussion about our name because not only was there the web site listing to consider, but one of our members went into the church office and downloaded the shawl minstry brochure templates from the site.

Grace's Shawl Ministry has many meanings, but it is too closely tied to the name of Grace Episcopal Church. We have folks who come from Iglesia Betania and other places, too. One member suggested Holy Needles.

We have a new name! Holy Needles/Las agujas santa.

Brochures and shawl ministry site listing to come.

We gather on the first and third Saturdays of the month from 10:30 a.m. - 11:30 a.m. Although some folks show up at 10, and many of us stay until noon. We're also making hats, scarves, mittens, cowls, baby sweaters and blankets. Another reason Holy Needles/Las agujas santa fits our group

Join us as we knit, crochet, and share conversation. If you want to learn how to knit or crochet, this is a great place to try it out! Or just come for the conversation.

See you on November 5th!
