I wanted to share this note with you all from Dick Jacobs, Gifts for the Unborn. This organization makes gift packets for pregnancy centers at no cost to us. The packets include a pair of hand-knit booties, sometimes a handcrafted picture frame, and a small baby care item. These packets are given out to women who have positive pregnancy tests as a "first baby gift" to honor the new life growing inside. We have been blessed for many years by the generosity of this organization, and I wanted to pass on this notice and ask you to pray for this special family during their time of loss:
From Dick Jacobs:
Just to let you know that my dad, the baby bootie maker, passed away Friday morning the 6th of March. Lorelle and I will be in Pennsylvania starting Tuesday for a week and then will be back to the charity around the middle of that next week. My dad was 105 years old when he passed on. He was the last surviving member of his high school class and the oldest member of his church. He and his wife made about 24,000 pairs of baby booties for our charity (about 20% of our total used to date). He was still working on baby booties less than two weeks ago. An amazing man.
Sincerely,
Dick Jacobs, Gifts for the Unborn
