Love INC recently set up a baby essentials appointment to help a young mother, "Peggy". Peggy survived domestic violence in a different state and was now starting her life over in Iowa. She was frightened about raising her child on her own and unsure how she would afford the cost of diapers. She gratefully accepted an appointment at First United Methodist and was able to receive diapers, wipes, clothing and more for her little boy. Peggy was able to relax a little bit and felt hopeful that she made the right choice to start her life over. She felt welcome at the church and has started attending! Now she has a support system within the congregation who can come alongside her, not only with her baby needs, but for her emotional and spiritual needs too.
