The Fear Knots- Prayer Shawl Ministry is designed to help those who are sick or in need of prayers. This ministry provides certain individuals with shawls that are made with love, prayers, and hope. You should feel very fortunate to receive one of these hand-made shawls. What better way to be a friend and share compassion offered through Christ?

The singing choir visits Bailey Manor, on the first Sunday of each month after services, to provide patients on the grips of Alzheimers disease and other forms of dementia with worship and songs of praise. Through this ministry, the choir helps bring back memories for the residents as they sing old favorites. How wonderful is the gift of song? "From them will come songs of thanksgiving and the sound of rejoicing. I will add to their numbers, and they will not be decreased; I will bring them honor, and they will not be disdained.-Jeremiah 30:19"
