April showers are beneficial and our annual Spring Shower benefits the Catherine McAuley Center and CareNet Pregnancy Center. Throughout April you can select tags from the board near the church entrance, purchase items needed by mothers, and return your gifts to the church by April 30. Online shoppers can use the McAuley Center’s Target gift registry to purchase supplies needed by homeless women and children; orders totalling $25 or more ship free to the Catherine McAuley Center. Any Target store will also print out the Catherine McAuley Center's charitable gift registry list for you.
Parishioners will deliver our shower gifts to the centers, which in turn distribute them to new mothers who greatly appreciate our support, caring, and sharing. If you wish to help with delivery, please talk with Terri Benedict (570-222-2916) or Rosanne Stracham (570-254-6687), or send an email about your interest to the Ministry Coordinating Commission.
