Welcome to Stitch and Prayer
The Stitch and Prayer Group was founded in 2009 as a knitting, sewing and crochet group that is committed to doing all of its work for those in need. Currently we have over 35 to 40 active members and are open to crafters of all faiths, skill levels, and levels of commitment. We are international. Additionally, we maintain relationships with area non-profits to determine their current needs.

We ask our crafters to work on what they love to do; there are no assigned projects. Each item is prayed over requesting God’s blessing on the crafter and the recipient. Each month we sort through the finished projects and distribute them to local non-profits.
