October 8th & 9th

Before/After Masses in Narthex

In celebration of Respect Life Month, the St. John the Baptist PREPARES* ministry is holding a diaper drive the weekend of October 8/9.
PREPARES will be collecting the following items to help support moms and families in need:
· Diapers (sizes 3,4,5, and 6)
· Baby wipes
· NEW clothes, babies’ size 6 months thru kids’ size 7/8 (onesies, shirts, pants, dresses, socks, etc.)
· lotion/shampoo/bath items for both moms and babies
Donated items can be placed in the PREPARES crib located in the church Narthex.

*PREPARES is a pregnancy and support ministry launched by the Washington State Catholic bishops with the promise of care from pregnancy to the child’s fifth birthday to mothers and fathers – no matter their beliefs. The PREPARES program celebrates the gift of life and makes sure that no child – born or unborn – is ever abandoned or alone. Thank you for respecting life by caring for vulnerable moms, babies and families!
