PREPARES

Parents of children in our Religious Ed program, be sure to watch for the reminder coming home

with your students this week about donating to our annual Lenten crib/bassinet, located at St.

Joseph's, outside the office door until March 31st. Donations of diapers in all sizes, wipes, bath

items, toiletries, feeding equipment, clothes, underwear and socks for babies to age five are all

needed. Books and small toys make a fun addition to the gift bags. Clothing can be new or like-

new. If your child's outgrown clothes are too big for the under five set - we can still use

them! We have an account at the Little Red Wagon consignment shop at 1889 Front St. Lynden

that will take gently used children's clothing up to size 16. Just tell

them you are donating for St. Joseph's PREPARES group. In this way

we can give "shopping spree" certificates for our neighbors in need

between our annual Lenten and September PREPARES donation

drives. Questions - call Pam Ames (360)592-5052.

Mission Statement St Joseph Roman Catholic Church

passion, justice and peace.
