The members knit or crochet prayer shawls and baby blankets from their favorite yarns. The blessed creations are given to individuals, nursing homes, and Bristol hospital to provide comfort and solace to those who are suffering or as a sign of joy at the birth of child. Parishioners have also made special requests.
The members work at home and during the meetings which are held on the second and fourth Fridays of the month in the church kitchen. Some members cannot attend the meetings but sill contribute shawls and blankets.
Any individual may procure a shawl or blanket by going to the office or calling Barbara Sutkowski at 860-747-8427 or email her at
