The Cactus Comfort Group provides handmade knitted and crocheted items, what we call "comfort" items, as it is our hope that our items bring comfort to those who are suffering from a loss, illness, or an emotional or spiritual crisis.
Our first priority is to our parishioners and their family and friends, however, quilts, shawls, hats, and chemo hats have been donated to various groups, including The Christ Child Society, VA Hospital, Villa Maria Care Center, and various hospitals and care centers. Our group also provides white-knitted baby bibs for babies baptized at St. Mark.
We welcome ALL who like to knit and/or crochet. Those who are experienced or those who want to learn. Yarn and needles/crochet hooks are provided.
If you are interested in joining our group, we meet on Fridays at the Parish Hall from 10:00 AM to 12 noon. You can also fill out the form below and someone can contact you directly.
You are welcome to drop by any Friday. Our group provides a wonderful opportunity to meet new people and socialize while volunteering in our Church Ministry Program. We look forward to meeting you.
