CAN YOU HELP WITH OUR PARISH BABY SHOWER? At the Diocesan Pro Life Commission Meeting, Pam Hibbard from Bethlehem House indicated that they have had many babies born recently, and their supplies are low. St Joseph's will be sponsoring a “Baby Shower” to collect baby items for them! Bethlehem House, Inc. Pregnancy Care Center is a non-profit, faith-based organization (located in Easthampton, MA) that provides free confidential services to pregnant women and men in need that have chosen life for their babies. Qualified clients receive supplies once a month until their baby is 18 months old. Specific items needed include plastic baby bottles, bottle washers, unscented baby wash/baby lotion/baby wipes, shampoo, terry hooded towels, receiving blankets, quilts, disposable diapers (sizes 4,5,6) diaper bags; and any size new or gently used non stained onesies, sleepers, sleep sacks, socks, sweaters, T-shirts/pants, knitted hats, bibs, and crib sheets. Walmart gift cards are desperately needed to purchase large items. Any monetary donations may be made payable to “Bethlehem House Inc.” ALL donations are 100% deductible. Our Pro Life Parish Coordinator, Sharon Vincent will collect and deliver all donations to Bethlehem House. Items will be collected after Masses on the weekends of May 14-15 and May 28-29. If you have any questions about this or about items needed, please call Sharon at 413-358-7011, or Bethlehem House at 413-262-8517. Bethlehem House is supported by the Annual Catholic Appeal, Diocese of Springfield. *This event is Diocesan and not connected to any individual parish activities.
