Solace Shawl was created for prayer shawl ministry at my church. We give shawls to those who are sick, in the hospital, in nursing homes and pray over and with the person. It is a tangible reminder of the prayers being said.

Solace is a synonym for comfort. The perfect word to describe the purpose of a prayer shawl.
