Thanks to Janis Kile Roux for passing on this information to me to share with the group.
The LSU Union has two Leisure Classes that are starting this week, one is a beginners knitting class and one is a beginning and history of crochet class.
Below is the information taken directly from the LSU Union Website about [...]
Our first meeting, while small, was extremely nice! On this last Tuesday a handful of ladies met at my home. We were able to share our shawls, visit and share stories, experienced our first knitting loom, and even taught one how to crochet! We were blessed by the time together and pray that as this [...]

I was able to get about 12 awesome yarn bags for a really great price. I’m offering these for sale to the people involved in this Ministry for the cost of $8.00. Any of the proceeds made from these will be put towards purchasing yarn for the Prayer Shawl Ministry.
Below are some pictures of the [...]

The long-time friend of mine who originally introduced me to the idea of Prayer Shawls has decided to make some for our group to give. Tonight she finished her first one and she will be sending it our way this next week. I think what’s so wonderful about this ministry that it can be so [...]
For the past two weeks I’ve been joining a really wonderful group of ladies to get together and work on fiber projects (crocheting, knitting, spinning, etc) on Tuesday evenings. One Tuesday a month they meet at a local yarn shop, and the other weeks they meet at a local McAlister’s. The group of women are [...]
I just wanted to say thank you to all who came out and stopped by our table in the fellowship hall this past Sunday. There is a lot of interest and excitment about Made With love, the new crafting ministry at UUMC. We have about 20 people who have expressed interest in making Prayer Shawls [...]
Over the last few weeks I’ve been talking to lots of people about our new ministry and sharing the details of the Prayer Shawl Ministry. There is a lot of excitement and many people are ready to get started! The one thing about a ministry is that it needs money to be able to provide [...]
I had the total pleasure of attending a Prayer Shawl Workshop this last weekend in Houston, TX. It was hosted by Chapelwood United Methodist Church and apparently they do this once a year. I’m hoping that next year there might be more people from Baton Rouge that would like to attend with me!
The event was [...]
