Psalm 91 Ministry

Yarns of Love

Crocheting  & Praying Gifts of Love

spreading hope & faith to those who recieve

The Psalm 91 Ministry all started because one man, James Salavejus, needed a prayer blanket and didn't have one. Monica Goltare brought him a prayer blanket and a prayer cloth when he was in the hospital having a series of surgeries. Each time he needed a surgery he clung to his prayer cloth. It reminded him that fear doesn't come from the Lord and that Jesus would be with him the whole time.   He kept his prayer blanket close by him.  Seeing the carefully crocheted cross on it reminded him of Christ's sacrifice which gave him hope & strength. He could feel God's arms embracing him.

It is our heart and our prayer that NO ONE should ever go without hope and trust in the Lord for healing, strength, and the Presence of God through the storms. Every Prayer Blanket and Cloth has Psalm 91 prayed over them and we receive reports on how the Lord uses these items to bring healing, hope, and encouragement to those that receive them.

Prayer blankets & cloths are available for free at both our River and ROC campus locations and at The ROC table during outreaches in Charles City.  Just let us know if you want one...or more...we encourage folks to take them to family and friends in need.   And, if you have a praise report on how our prayer blanket or cloth was a blessing to you or someone you know...PLEASE connect with us and tell us about it!  We want to share the encouraging testimony with others.

Testimonies

One Sunday morning at The River Church, Pastor Ron was sharing about the prayer blankets. He held up a bag and said if you know of someone who is in need of healing please take one. Monica prays over each stitch as she makes these. It just so happened my brother came with me that morning. We had recently been told his wife had throat cancer, so before Pastor could even put it down I scooped it up. My brother even sent me a picture of her sleeping with this blanket. Jan did have radiation treatments and lots of prayer. One year later, Jan is cancer free! When my mom had a stroke my sister in law, Jan, passed along the blanket to my mom and then the blanket was given to my sister, Mary, who was diagnosed with lung cancer later that year. They are both healed and praising God for his grace.
Another Sunday, I picked up another blanket to give to my husband. He had recently been diagnosed with an aggressive cancer on his ear. By the grace of God, prayers, and surgery, Gary is also cancer free. Gary still wears the blanket sometime when he sits at his desk to this day.
We believe that prayer is our weapon and we also know the special love that goes into each blanket that has been prayed over by Monica and love is in each stitch. We believe God is our healer and we are grateful that Monica takes so much time to pass on prayer and love through her blanket ministry.      -  Frannie B.
