Welcome to Holy Needles!

FREE lessons in crocheting and knitting! FREE materials provided to any Holy Needles member who wants to be a part of this rewarding ministry!

Our main focus is contributing beanies, booties, and blankets to the disadvantaged newborns in the Tucson region. Some of these infants have nothing, yes, NOTHING to go home with... they are that indigent! We provide at least a new, fresh soft covering for their precious newborn bodies.

Holy Needles started with 8 members, and we have grown to scores of members, and welcome anyone who would like to share in our joyous giving!

As of June 2010, Holy Needles expanded its ministry to also create scarves for children & adults for Samaritan's Purse worldwide programs, and we created lap blankets and shawl/blankets for homebound! Come join us!

As of September 2010, we again expanded our ministry to create blankets for cancer patients at local oncology treatment centers, and blankets for homeless in the region.

Holy Needles is open to anyone of any age... anyone willing to create items for those in need.

We meet twice a month... the 3rd Monday 1-4, and the last Saturday 9am-noon, in the Ocotillo bldg, on Casas Church campus. Join us!!

Chemo Blankets for Patients Receiving Chemotherapy Treatments...

Holy Needles members are creating blankets for patients who are undergoing chemotherapy treatments in local Tucson facilities.  Here's an example of one of the blankets... made from our huge generous donation of fleece from Polartec!
