Nearly 40 quilts made by Trinity members will be blessed during the liturgies on 2/18 and given to UMASS Hospitals as part of the “Power of Presence” program. The program places volunteers at the bedside of dying patients to assist family members or when there is no family.
The blankets are placed on the patient and are taken home by the family. Writes Mary Olson: “I can’t tell you how much they are appreciated, any donations are cheerfully accepted.” For more info, please contact Lori Doyle: [email protected].
