Birthday Party for Baby Jesus
DATE: 12/09/19 - 12/13/19
Starting Monday, Dec. 9th St. Philomena School is having a birthday party for baby Jesus. Each year St. Philomena School conducts a birthday party for baby Jesus in which we collect baby items for Pregnancy Aid. Pregnancy Aid is a service agency located right here in our Des Moines community. Their mission is to help pregnant women or young mothers. We are working together as a school and parish to help them during this Advent season. The drive starts Dec. 9th and runs through Dec. 13th. Each class is asked to bring in a specific item. We are also asking the parishioners to help out; you can bring in any item from the list. This is a great way to extend the true meaning of Advent to those in need.
