The Infant/Toddler Clothes Closet is an outreach of our Respect Life Ministry and is a great opportunity for all parishioners from both parishes, our entire pastorate, to help the youngest disciples of Christ. The Infant Clothes Closet helps preborn children through size 3T. Through the generosity of parishioners with donations of gently used and new clothing and other baby items (see bathtub full of ducks and two happy boys), we have helped over 100 families in the first year. Many of our families come back a second, third, or more times for additional clothes, usually larger, and bring a friend.
Our ministry continues to grow, serving more children, and additional ministers would allow us to serve more preborn and toddler children. There are only two requirements. First, you must have a love to help others; this love is already in you, because Jesus lives in your heart. Second, VIRTUS training is required. The online training takes approximately 20 minutes to complete. VIRTUS training can be arranged by contacting Liz Dixon at 410-867-2059, ext 5 or [email protected].
This is a truly rewarding way to live out the Corporal Works of Mercy in Christ’s love. You will receive as much as you give. If you can give an hour a week to share Christ’s love through this ministry, contact Barb at [email protected].
