October is Respect Life month. Here at Next Step of course every month is Respect Life Month but back in 1972 (according to USCCB) the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops officially made it a sacred month to celebrate and uphold the sanctity of life.

Next Step is scheduled to have two combination Baby Bottle Campaigns this month. A physical bottle handout at St. Brendan Church in Bothell the weekend of October 3rd/4th and at Holy Rosary in Edmonds the weekend of October 10th/11th. We are also offering a Virtual Baby Bottle Campaign found here on this site (nssupport.org) under the heading “Baby Bottle Campaign”. Donation can be made both ways.

Also, please check out Coffee and Doughnuts with Father Wichert on Facebook Live Saturday September 26th at 11:30am as Next Step Pregnancy Services Executive Director Heather Vasquez will be his guest!

Shout out to Juan Pablo, a family member of one of our Next Step staff, who generously created our Baby Bottle Graphic!

Be on the look out for our Fall Baby Bottle Campaigns starting. We are doing a combination of virtual and physical. We’d love to come to your church or organization to share about our life-affirming ministry!
