FBC Church Family, I am working on my Girl Scout Gold
Award. I am assembling Layette Kits for new Moms in
the Gulfport, Mississippi area. Because of the destructive
hurricanes last year people lost everything. They are
putting their lives back together and many don’t have
the resources to provide small necessities for their
newborns. The kits include the following:
- 6 cloth diapers
- 2 shirts or 2 one-piece body suits
- 2 baby washcloths
- 2 gowns or sleepers
- 2 diaper pins
- 1 sweater open in the front
- 2 receiving blankets
If you would like to donate items there
will be collection boxes in the church office. These
kits will be delivered during the Youth Mission Trip
this summer to Gulfport. Please help me make the beginning
of little lives a little brighter.
Anna Campbell
You are cordially invited to The Eagle Scout Ceremony
