CPC's New Executive Director
|
After a long and rewarding time at CPC, our Executive Director, Carol Clews, has retired. She has faithfully served CPC for 16 years. Words cannot describe the impact Carol has had on the pro-life movement in greater Baltimore.
Our prayer is that Carol and her husband, Vince, will enjoy many happy, healthy and exciting years together in this chapter of their lives.
As CPC enters a new decade with dramatic changes ahead, we are happy to introduce Gina Ruppert as our new Executive Director. She is a Baltimore native with a degree in social work and experience in the non-profit arena. Gina is passionately pro-life, well equipped and eager to take on the challenges of this ever-growing position.

Every Christmas season, as part of their mission, the women of
Faith Fellowship
sponsor a shower for the children of CPC. The ornaments on the Christmas tree are socks, onesies and stuffed animals. The presents under the tree are diapers, wipes and warm sleepers. The morning included prayer, fellowship and ,as with every Faith Fellowship event, great food! All of the women who attended were excited to hear about the number of families CPC reaches, all of the FREE services provided and the Summer 2020 opening of our Howard St. location.
Special thanks to Johanna Licharowicz and her family for generously opening their home. Johanna and the women of Faith Fellowship are indeed a blessing to the families of CPC.

Special thanks to Kim Donadio and
Helping Hands of America

CPC is again this year the beneficiary of a Catholic Ministries Grant
.
The money has been donated specifically to fund expenses as we add additional sonographers. The money will greatly help as we open our new Howard St. location where we will be able to perform ultrasounds for abortion-minded women in an underserved area of Baltimore City. This is an example of your support to the
Annual Appeal for Catholic Ministries
in action.

Meet CPC mom, Monica! When Monica was pregnant, she found CPC as she was on a bus passing our center on Eastern Boulevard in Essex. Monica and her son, who is now two years old, have been a part of the CPC family ever since.
Moms in our "Earn While You Learn" sewing program, like Monica, are learning to sew and are making clothing and other items for their children and themselves. Monica is proudly displaying her most recent project for her son: a warm and snuggly flannel, quilted blanket made out of his receiving blankets. YEA Monica--great job, the blanket is beautiful!
Our EWYL Classes are a key component of CPC's mission. This educational program helps moms gain valuable life skills. Special thanks to Darlene Zeiler who has been lovingly teaching these classes for almost 5 years.
Darlene you are a blessing to our moms and their children.
