Blowing my own horn a bit, but am hoping this might be of some help to you.

I strongly urge you to find ways to get the entire body of believers involved in the prayers part of the ministry. I know that the home churches and other ministry groups that participated in tying the ties and praying for our friend were so glad to be asked to take part, and the recipient found great comfort in seeing each floss tie on the finished quilt and knowing each tie represented someone who was "praying her through." Other churches have adapted this idea [with or without the signature squares] to their prayers and squares ministry by sending quilts with ties waiting for final tying to women's ministry meetings; prayer groups; cell groups and even a men's breakfast club. There's power in prayer, and great healing power in knowing that there are many many people who have prayed for you.
