New Parents Ministry

“It Takes a Village to Raise a Child”

We are working on introducing a New Parents Ministry at St. Noel for parents of children age 2 and under. The Ministry will be a chance for new parents to meet each other, pray together, discuss topics that come up during the infancy stage, and simply support each other during this most joyous, but challenging, time in our lives. The Ministry will also allow our infants to play together and develop social skills.

Some examples of topics of discussion for the group are as follows:

Feeding our Infants
Sleep Patterns
Balancing Time for Parenthood, Work, Housekeeping, Socializing, etc. with a new Infant at Home
Events in the Community for Infants and Parents
Methods of Communication with our Children
Benefits of Infant Massage
Teaching our Children our Faith

If you are interested in being a part of this group which would meet at St. Noel weekly for about 1 – 1½ hours, complete out the questionnaire below or call Janice Cackowski at (440) 585-9588.
