Vernon Alliance Compassion & Care provides practical, emotional and spiritual care. We also provide referral information and community resources.
Our purpose is to serve the Lord with our hands by crafting shawls with prayer, love and meaning.
If you have a heart for people in need of compassion, healing, encouragement, peace and comfort from our God then you are invited to participate in this ministry.

Prayer Shawls
Do you know of someone who has recently experienced loss of a loved one, is in a stage of grief, is going through loss of physical or mental health, is struggling with addiction, divorce, or a life-threatening illness? Our prayer-shawl team is a group of volunteers who love to minister and bless as they pray and knit shawls & blankets. These shawls provide comfort, strength, love, and more as the wearer wraps themselves in an item prayerfully created with them in mind.
Requests made here go to Marni, our Ministry Associate.
