Care

Lay Parish Visitors

Lay Parish Visitors (LPVs) are church members who make a monthly contact (visit, phone call, or card) with assigned persons who tend to be homebound or not otherwise able to fully participate in church activities. LPVs meet monthly for mutual support.

Flower Power Ministry

Volunteers needed to serve on Mondays. Arrangers break down the Sanctuary and Narthex flowers and make individual small arrangements. These arrangements are taken by the deliverers to members who are listed on the Prayer Concerns list. Consider doing this with a friend and enjoying fellowship.

Prayer Shawl Ministry

Prayer Shawl Ministry Volunteers meet weekly on Tuesday afternoons to knit or crochet shawls, blankets, and lap robes. Knitting and crocheting is mostly done in fellowship with other Roswell Presbyterian Church members, but individuals may bring finished items to the group. After a prayer by name, a prayer shawl is delivered to those recently sick or in surgery. Roswell Presbyterian Church members may request that one be delivered.

Meets Tuesdays
1 to 3 p.m.
Room 246 (Sanctuary Level)

Prayers and Squares

Prayers & Squares is a caring ministry of fellowship, prayer, and outreach. Gathering each Monday morning, volunteers use their gifts in making quilts that are designed as an expression of prayer. Prayer Quilts are given to those who have physical, emotional, or spiritual needs for prayer. Each quilt has ribbons tied with knots as prayers are said for the recipient. If you would like to request a prayer quilt or prayer square, please fill out the online form, here.
