For Mothers
Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of motherhood. Bless all mothers with strength, wisdom, and love as they nurture their children. Amen
For Respect Life
Loving God, creator of all life, you have known us from all eternity. Before you ever formed us in our mothers’ wombs you knew us.
Teach us to foster the loving care of all your creation, including the unborn, the elderly, the handicapped, and the terminally ill.
Help up to see anew the miracle and sacredness of all life, and give us a profound awareness of our responsibility toward this gift from you.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen

Love Life Ministry is open Thursdays from 1-4pm. We are not open on the holidays. The primary duties that our volunteers do are as follows:
- Register Clients with children under 3
- Hand out diapers and formula to clients
- Pack layette boxes for mothers expecting new babies. (layette is a box of all new items including onesies, pajamas, blankets, soaps, and many other items)
- Sort items that have been donated into boxes for clients to choose.
Volunteers can arrive about a half hour early to be sure we are ready when clients start arriving at 1.
Sorting of donations can be done at any time and can be arranged.
We’re very accommodating. If you’re scheduled to work and something comes up, you let us know and we find a sub for you. If volunteering at the Love Life Ministry is something you’d like to learn more about, send an email to Lovelifewest93@gmail.com and include your name and phone numbers. We’ll give you a call and schedule a time when you can come and see what we do. There is no obligation. If you decide this isn’t for you, we totally understand.
