would like to have in place by
early spring. If you think you
or a woman you know might
be called to minister to
women and babies at
Danielle Inn, please call
Abby Shields at (985)

• We are short on some basic
necessities at the house and
would appreciate if anyone
can help with donations. We
need the following: 40 gallon
garbage bags, kitchen bags,
laundry detergent and fabric
softeners, toilet paper, paper
towels, and lysol. If you
would like to drop anything
off at the house, please call
us at (985) 898-3559.
• Molly is back in Wisconsin
and while she is happy to be
back home with family, she is
having a difficult time
emotionally after placing her
child for adoption. Please
keep her in your prayers.
