Have a Little Faith
We need to have a little faith...
COVID-19 is racing around the world. This devastating disease has crept into every US state, with the large cities being hit the hardest. We are asked to stay at home: no work, no recreation, and no church. No church. Typically, during a crisis, people pull together, reach out to help each other and flock to church with a deeper commitment. With shelter-in-place orders and social distancing, attending church has become a drive-through or online experience. We will have to find new ways to share our faith this Easter season. This past weekend, I constructed face masks while I watched The Ten Commandments on television. Like many of you, I am doing what little I can to help protect the health care and emergency service workers who are caring for others. I pray that our ever-loving God will heal the sick, comfort the anxious, strengthen the weak, give rest to the weary, and carry those who have succumbed in His loving arms.
If you are quilting at home, you may be looking for projects that can help fill your faith bucket. Tara and Hannah picked out two of our Christian panels that could quickly become a wall hanging or small quilt. Hannah, left is holding the Serenity Prayer, and Tara, on the right is holding Psalm 23.
I will be starting a new quilt-along on Wednesday, April 22, 1pm CST featuring my faith-based pattern, Have A Little Faith. The quilt along will be offered free on Zoom, and once we are released to work together again, I will open my doors to our regular Quilters of Faith to sew along in a group. Use this link in your browser to join the quilt along: https://zoom.us/j/234880201?pwd=QlduaVgyeHBsTFBQaU84WWFOVU5NZz09. You may be prompted to include a password to join the group. The password is quilt.
I hope you will be able to join me -- Teresa
