Mother’s Day – Father’s Day 2025

To help make a change in a woman’s life and that of her baby and to help agencies providing counseling, prenatal medical care and housing during pregnancy and after birth, the Social Concerns Ministry is working to collect funds to support those in need.  From Mother’s Day, May 11^th to Father’s Day, June 15^th, empty baby bottles can be picked up from the bassinets located in Good Shepherd Square and The Gathering area and can be returned to the same location with your donation.  If you prefer to write a check, please make it payable to St. Raphael parish, Baby Bottle Campaign on the Memo line. All donations will be divided among Birthright, an emergency pregnancy support organization, Zelie’s Home, a shelter for pregnant and parenting women, and Lifeworks Ohio, dedicated to the sanctity of human life.

Thank you and may God bless you for your help as you have blessed another!
