Hands & Hearts Knitting Ministry

MISSION: Our hands become God’s hands, when we use them as instruments of sharing Christ’s love with others. The mission of Hands and Hearts Knitting Ministry is two-fold.
 The first is that of outreach, by knitting (or crocheting) items for those in need.
 The second is that of fostering an environment of learning and fellowship while working with one’s hands.

HOW IS THIS DONE?
 Outreach is achieved by identifying needs and knitting (or crocheting) items to meet these needs. Examples include prayer shawls, preemie caps and sweaters for impoverished children around the world through Guideposts’ “Knit for Kids” sweater project.
 Secondly, those interested in knitting, or learning how to knit are welcome to join us. Also anyone who may not knit, but performs other hand/needlework may also come and join in the fellowship of this group. It has been said that this group must be having the most fun, as peals of laughter are usually heard coming from the room where we meet.

MEETINGS: Hands and Hearts meets on the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month, 7:00-9:00 P.M., from September through June (no meetings in July and August). It is not necessary to attend every gathering. Participants can come when they are able.
