I spent Friday morning creating a frame for the prayer project I envisioned for the chapel at Synod Assembly. I had a smaller frame that I used last year with our church, but I couldn't get the yarn tight enough. I thought it might do, but by Friday, I wanted something better. Plus, I bought the frame and didn't particularly want to take it back to the store.
Taking the frames through the Synod Assembly crowds at different days and times helped publicize the fact that we had a chapel. It was far away from the traffic patterns, but people still found it and made their way to weave some prayers.
The finished project was part of the altar area of the Synod Assembly. It will go to the Synod Office. The woman who asked me to participate was pleased with the project and asked if I'd help next year. Of course I said yes. I feel good about this first foray into helping create a prayer chapel for Synod Assembly.
As I was getting the baskets after the closing service, a woman rushed forward. She said, "Wait, wait, I want a picture. I've been waiting for a good time to get a picture all morning." Hurrah!
