THE WOMEN'S CENTER - Ongoing Request

In our nation approximately 1 million abortions are performed each year. The aborted babies aren’t the only victims. Their mothers, who in many cases were pressured into the abortion, are also victims. Sooner or later, they experience horrible grief and depression. At the Women’s Centers we try to enable women struggling with problem pregnancies to give birth and save them from grieving later.

SEEKING FAMILY ROOM DONATIONS - We need diapers in sizes 4, 5, and 6; pull-ups in sizes 4, 5, 6; boys and girls sleepers sizes 9 to 12 months; receiving blankets, new pacifier s, baby wipes, baby shampoo, and lotion. For more information, please call at773-794-1313.

CORAZÓN A CORAZÓN - Ongoing Volunteer Opportunity

Corazón a Corazón, a sponsored ministry of the School Sisters of Notre Dame offering one-on-one ESL classes for adults, is in need of volunteers. Currently, Corazón has a waiting list of learners. Adults wanting to take advantage of these individualized lessons, so they will be able to participate more fully in society, must wait until someone like YOU steps up and says, “Here I am, send me.”

Please call us at 708-377-7761 or email us at
mpimentel@corazon-chicago.org to see how YOU can make a difference.

You will not need to know Spanish and training will be provided. Please help! You will be surprised at how good it will make you feel and how rewarding this ministry really is!

Call or come see us for the chance to give as you have been given.
