What would be considered reasonable time frames between request and delivery of a prayer quilt?
~A~ There is no hard and fast rule, but we like to promise a prayer quilt within 2 weeks from the request, and that is reasonable considering the amount of time and effort that goes into making the quilt, and because the prayer quilts are tied usually only on Sunday as part of the worship experience. With that said, however, once you have a stash of quilts in your closet to draw from, you can usually respond so that the prayer quilt is tied on the Sunday following the request. Chapters use other avenues where there is a need to respond more immediately. One of these avenues is the prayer square, where the rules that apply to prayer quilts do not apply.
