Prayer Quilt Ministry

Welcome to Prayers & Squares...Prayer Quilt Ministry ...Chapter #314

Prayers & Squares is a Christian Outreach Ministry that combines Prayer with the gift of a Hand-tied Quilt.

Unlike many other organizations that make quilts for charitable causes, the purpose of Prayers & Squares is not to make and distribute quilts, but to promote prayer through the use of quilts. Our motto is: "It's not about the quilt; it's all about the prayers."

Each Knot Represents a Prayer

The idea behind these prayer quilts is simple. A heavy thread is used to take stitches through the quilt layers, and the ends are left free to be tied with square knot. As each knot is tied, a silent prayer is offered for someone in special need, The Quilt is then given to that person.

Through Prayers and Squares many quilts have been distributed, each a special gift of God's love. They have been made for sick babies, for cancer and AIDS patients, for adults and children facing surgery or personal crisis.

The Prayer Quilt Ministry's mission is to make a statement of faith and share the testimony of our belief in God and the Power of Prayer.
