2007 Barakah Life Handmade
Today I received an unexpected gift made with love and prayers from someone I do not know. It was a prayer shawl from TMC Hospice program.
The shawls are created all over the country and then sent to different organizations that help individuals with loss. What a beautiful & lovely thing to do.
From their web site.....Whether they are called Prayer Shawls, Comfort Shawls, Peace Shawls, or
Mantles, etc., the shawl maker begins with prayers and blessings for the
recipient. The intentions are continued throughout the creation of the shawl.
Upon completion, a final blessing is offered before the shawl is sent on its
way. Some recipients have continued the kindness by making a shawl and passing
it onto someone in need. Thus, the blessing ripples from person-to-person, with
both the giver and receiver feeling the unconditional embrace of a sheltering
God!
Subhanallah! I agree....that is a beautiful idea indeed. Please keep sharing your unique views of beauty with us!
