ABOUT
Immanuel Quilt Ministry
The Immanuel Quilt Ministry is a nonprofit traveling ministry founded by Joni Wolf in 2015. She travels across Indiana and beyond to tell the story of the Immanuel Quilt, to tell of what God has done. The Immanuel Quilt is just another beautiful quilt, without telling the story woven within it — the one all about Jesus.
The idea to make the Immanuel Quilt came to Joni in a dream, when in a dream she heard the voice of God tell her to make a quilt representing names of Jesus and begin a traveling ministry. She pushed through doubts and fears, accepted the assignment, and five months later, with the help of other women, had a finished quilt and was standing before a group of women at a church giving her first Show and Tell.
Joni travels across Indiana and beyond making Christ known with one unique quilt.
In 2017, Joni wrote, The Immanuel Quilt: A True Story of One Ordinary Woman, One Unique Quilt, and One Extraordinary God..
In 2022, Joni says she heard God tell her that she would have a purple bus for her ministry one day, and that it would be given to her. March 14, 2025, she received the bus. Upon getting it, there were many hoops, hits, and hurdles to get the bus mission ready, so much so that she has written a book about the bus, Faith to Believe. The book should be available by Fall 2026. What starts as a story about a bus morphs into two stories, even three, showing the faithfulness of God and that with Him, all things are possible.
Joni is a storyteller at heart, and she just loves to tell His Story through the Immanuel Quilt. Contact her to schedule a Show and Tell.
