The Baby Shower campaign kicked off on December 28 and ran through January 13, 2020. There were several people that signed up for the committee to sort the incoming baby items and bring the baby goods from the crib in the nartex to the Upper Hall. Some of the things that were accomplished by this wonderful group was the planning for the shower itself, informing the congregation about the details and creating the lovely poster displayed in the narthex. This committee also sorted, packed and delivered the bountiful supply of baby goods to the pregnancy centers. These wonderful parishioners who gave of their time to volunteer for this project (without them the shower would not have been a success): Edie Gray, Mary Costello, Sandra Stevenson, Linda Durrett, Bobbie Rhodea, Deb Sprecher, Nancy Webster and Joe & Terry Sczerzen. The people of Sacred Heart in their generosity donated $1024.00, which is at least $400 more than last year. Also, from what I heard the money is still coming in. Boy we sure love those babies!
