Prayer & Care
The purpose of our prayer & care ministry is to address the internal needs of the congregational family here at Lord of the Hills, as well as those within our circle of friends and broader community.
If you or someone close to you is in need, we can help! Needs are met confidentially, timely and intentionally with care. Submit a prayer & care request and someone in our Care Committee will contact you.

Prayer Shawls
In 1998, Janet Severi Bristow and Victoria Galo, two graduates of the 1997 Women's Leadership Institute at The Hartford Seminary in Hartford, Connecticut gave birth to a ministry as a result of their experience in this program of applied Feminist Spirituality under the direction of Professor Miriam Therese Winter, MMS. Compassion and the love of knitting/crocheting have been combined into a prayerful ministry and spiritual practice which reaches out to those in need of comfort and solace, as well as in celebration and joy. Many blessings are prayed into every stitch.
Whether they are called Prayer Shawls, Comfort Shawls, Peace Shawls, or Mantles, etc., the shawl maker begins with prayers and blessings for the recipient. The intentions are continued throughout the creation of the shawl. Upon completion, a final blessing is offered before the shawl is sent on its way. Some recipients have continued the kindness by making a shawl and passing it onto someone in need. Thus, the blessing ripples from person-to-person, with both the giver and receiver feeling the unconditional embrace of a sheltering, mothering God!
If you, or someone close to you, could be blessed with receiving a prayer shawl please contact our church office to make arrangements to pick one up, call +1 (303) 617-9884.
