On November 1, the JLC hosted The Alex Baby Shower. This Impact Event was designed to give pregnant and parenting youth clients of The Alex Youth Health Centre an opportunity to celebrate the birth of their unborn babies, new babies and toddlers. Streamers and decorations transformed the basement of the Wild Rose United Church and the room was filled with laughter and focused on love for these precious children.
The afternoon was fun-filled with songs and stories, and the crafty creation of memory books by the parents for their children. The toddlers in attendance had the opportunity to personalize a super hero-sized cape.
A delicious, hot meal was served and the celebration wound up with baby shower cake and small gifts of books, activities and practical items personalized for the age of the babies and toddlers. Of greatest importance was the gift of time, energy and dedication supplied by JLC members.
