St. John the Evangelist Church

February 9th, 2012

Shown (l-r) are St. John the Evangelist Church representatives Vivian Keilman, Tom Keilman, Pete Rupcich and Jerry Barker.

Nazareth Home staff and volunteers were overwhelmed when representatives from St. John the Evangelist Church arrived with a semi-truck full of donated items for children at the East Chicago foster home. East Chicago firemen who happened by also lent a hand with unloading the items donated by parishioners of Father Sammie L. Maletta's church in St John, IN.

"The year 2012 has been so good to us already," said Nazareth Home Director/Foster Mother Jean Bowman. "In addition to our ongoing quest for financial assistance, this is a terrific example of our Northwest Indiana community at its finest – with a generous church and a few local firemen working in spontaneous harmony for the good of our children. These donations will go a long way in helping us for this year!"

Nazareth Home, a ministry of the Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ, is dedicated to meeting the emotional and spiritual needs of medically at-risk infants and children who are faced with extraordinary challenges in life.
