Prayers and Squares Prayer Quilt Ministry

Prayers and Squares is a chapter of an international quilt ministry. We are an interfaith outreach ministry that combines the gift of prayer with a handmade quilt.

The purpose of our ministry is to promote prayer through the gift of a quilt.

Our motto:

It’s not about the quilt, but rather the prayers tied into the quilt.

A prayer quilt is the visible & tangible evidence of faith in God.
The prayer ties are the knots that hold our fabric of life together.
 
Recipients of our quilts  include:

• UTSW Medical Center
• Children’s Craniofacial Organization
• Hospice
• Nursing homes
• VA hospital
• Children’s hospital
• Individuals encountering a difficult journey in their lives
• Birth Choice center

 
Our ministry also participates in many parish events:

• Gala
• Women’s Club Art & Craft Bazaar
• Men’s Club Casino Night
• Fall Fest
• Lone Rose Sunday
• Christmas Angel tree
• Mardi Gras

 
It is not necessary to know how to quilt as there are many ways you can contribute your time & talent:

• Sew prayer ties into a quilt
• Help piece together a top
• Hand sew a binding
• Attach a label
• Donate cotton fabric, thread, or batting
• Monetary donation
• Pray for quilt recipients
