The Ottawa East Chapter of Threads of Love is a sewing ministry we began in 2006. The ministry is two-fold: providing care packages to families with premature babies in the NICU and providing items to families facing the loss of an infant. Depending on the trimester in which the loss occurred, we provide memory quilts, memory boxes, miscarriage wrappers, bereavement gowns, and/or blankets. All our items include a card with a prayer for the family.
Our mission is to show parents the love of Christ at a time when their personal loss is hard to endure and to let them know that God is faithful.
If you hear of a family in need, or if you love to quilt/sew/cross stitch/knit and want to get involved, contact Emma (rrpc.threadsoflove@gmail.com).
