Prayer Shawl Ministry

Everyone needs a warm hug—especially those who are sick, homebound, or feeling alone.
As a beautiful symbol of love, comfort, and kindness, St. Vincent Martyr’s Prayer Shawl Ministry creates handmade shawls and blankets for fellow parishioners who may need a little extra support and care. Each shawl and blanket is blessed before being lovingly distributed upon request.

Adults and teens are welcome to join! Basic knitting or crocheting skills are needed.
Interested in becoming part of this special ministry? Contact Barbara Kelly at [email protected] or (201) 321-6094.

Have Extra Yarn?

If you have leftover yarn sitting in a box and you're not sure what to do with it, donate it to the Prayer Shawl Ministry! We can turn your unused yarn into something beautiful and meaningful—a shawl or blanket that will bring comfort to a parishioner who needs a hug.

Your extra yarn can become a gift of love. Thank you for supporting our ministry!

Our Baptism Ministry is looking for volunteers to help create the beautiful baptism bibs and booties given to our parish’s newest members.

Baptism Bibs

We are especially in need of an embroiderer, and sewing skills would be an added bonus. If you would like to share your talents and help make something special for our baptism families, please contact:
