SAVE THE DATE!
Caring Network Illinois is the first step for women facing an unplanned pregnancy. They welcome women with unconditional love, counsel, and resources that offer the light of truth—changing hearts and saving lives. Over time our team has honed its skills, so that we bring the very best tools into the crisis of an unplanned pregnancy—the latest in ultrasound technology and pregnancy counselors skilled in intervention, addressing the complex issues that compel a mother to seek abortion as her answer. In almost four decades, Caring Network has been used by God to save many thousands of lives!
St. John’s has generously donated to Caring Network in the past through the baby bottle drive in the summer. Please join us as we support them through a Diaper Derby that will begin the first week in January. They need disposable diaper sizes 4, 5, and 6 as well as Newborn size. They also need baby cream, baby powder, baby shampoos and baby wash as well as baby wipes. Formula is also welcome. There will be a box marked with Caring Network in the narthex beginning January 2nd! Thank you for your generosity!
