And my God will supply every need of yours according
to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:19
God is in the business
of supplying needs.
He did this
through the generosity of members of the early Christian church. Today, He continues to do this through His
people.
How are we called to
help?
One
specific need relates to the people served by CCC ministry partner Pregnancy
Solutions and Services, or PSS. Our friends at PSS use Emma’s Closet to help
new parents clothe their babies, and provide other items for baby care.
For
example, when a client has a baby, PSS gives the client a layette as a gift. It
is filled with travel size baby wash, shampoo, lotion, baby socks and related
items. PSS also makes items available to soon-to-be parents for taking classes
in preparation for their baby’s birth. The parents can earn points which can be
redeemed at Emma’s Closet for baby care items.
In helping
these parents, God’s people can be instrumental in demonstrating God’s love for
the parents, and generosity that can be life saving for the babies.
What can I do?
You can
drop off needed items in the SOS bin at the Christ Community Chapel Hudson
campus. This bin is located in the hallway between the atrium and the
gymnasium. Please mark items ‘For PSS’.
Here are
the items PSS needs: baby towels, wash cloths, burp cloths, bibs, baby shampoo,
body wash, wipes, lap pads, receiving blankets, baby socks and brand new
clothing – all sizes for boys and girls…especially boys and girls 0-6 month
outfits and P.J.s. PSS clients also need
nearly new clothing for girls 0-3 months and 24 month-3T as well as boys, 0-3,
3-6, 6-9, 12, 18 and 24 months – 3T.
The CCC
Local Outreach team will ensure these items get to PSS and their clients.
