Don’t Forget Your Baby Bottle
On the weekend of March 9th & 10th, St. Francis of Assisi Parish will be hosting a Baby Bottle Fundraiser to benefit the Life Center of Long Island.
The Life Center is a pregnancy care center that consults with women and men who are experiencing an unplanned pregnancy. Did you know that they provide?
- Free pregnancy test kits
- Free sonogram
- Maternity housing with eligibility requirements referrals
- Medical care referrals
- Material aid including car seats, cribs, clothing, diapers, and many other needed baby items
- Male advocates available to speak with fathers
We are asking that you pick up a baby bottle and fill it with your donation.
(Please make checks payable to the Life Center of L.I.)
Please return the bottles on
April 6th and 7th
Most importantly, we are asking you to recite the prayer attached to the baby bottle. Prayers bring about something very powerful at the Life Center… a change of a mother’s heart! We believe these prayers lead abortion-minded women to reach out to the Life Center in the beginning of their pregnancy.
Prayers also spiritually equip our consultants at the Life Center to say just the right words a mother or father may need to hear with hope of choosing the gift of life for their baby.
Let us pray for the conversion of a mother’s
heart to give the gift of life to her preborn baby!
St. Francis Giving Trees
The St. Francis Giving Trees are in the church. These trees are brightly decorated with special gift tags – each tag represents a child in need this Christmas.
A Tribute to St. Vincent de Paul and His Works
We hope you have noticed the new statue of St. Vincent de Paul that now graces the music space near the organ. The dedication and blessing will take place this weekend.
