It’s a very merry baby time of year and St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Brockport is celebrating the season with layettes for newborns of families in need.
Welcoming a new baby is a joyous occasion, but for some families it can also be a time of stress. Luke’s Layettes is an active ministry that provides clothing and other basic necessities for area families who could use a little extra help caring for their infants. Although the layettes are distributed throughout the year, they seem to take on special meaning during the Christmas season.
“These layettes help to bring an added touch of joy to the new moms and are always received with thankful hearts,” said Rosemary Catlin, who oversees the ministry. “Luke’s Layettes has long served our community and we look forward to being there for families who need our help, not just during the holiday season, but also in the year ahead.”
To help welcome newborns, drop off your donations at St. Luke’s, 14 State Street, Brockport, between the hours of 9 a.m. and 1 p.m., Monday through Thursday. Make checks payable to St. Luke’s with Luke’s Layettes noted in the memo line.
