New and expecting moms can grab a blessing bag Friday to kick off Mother's Day
ASHLAND − The Pregnancy Care Center and Gideons International Ashland Camp are partnering for a fourth year to present the Blessing Bag Outreach for expectant moms and moms with babies (up to age 2) in the Ashland community.
To kick off Mother's Day weekend, 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Friday at First United Methodist Church parking lot, 220 Sandusky St., families can drive by and be presented a "blessing bag" filled with diapers (newborn, size 5), wipes, prayer blanket, personal hygiene items and more.
Limited supplies are available. Free baby food and formula will be distributed as well as other gifts from businesses and organizations.
The women's auxiliary with Gideons International will present Bibles to families and offer prayers for each mom who drives by for help. Rise FM Radio will be in attendance to providing encouraging music.
This event started in May 2020 in response to COVID-19. Ashland Pregnancy Care Center and its team saw firsthand how families needed extra help with the necessities to care for a newborn.
