Newborn Meal Trains
A new baby is a joyous occasion for our parish family! Our parish is organizing meal trains to help provide practical support and warm welcomes to our families with new babies. Your home-cooked meal can make a huge difference. If you’d like to offer a meal and help ease their transition, please sign up for our current Newborn Meal Trains listed below.
The Ebmeyer Family
Jonathon and Haley Ebmeyer welcomed their son, Leo, in July after recently moving to the area. Consider blessing the Ebmeyer family with a meal and with prayers!
Do You Need a Meal Train?
Have you recently welcomed a little one into your family, or are you preparing for the birth of a new baby?

Please reach out to Rachael Fornarotto, Director of Youth, Young Adults, and Young Families, at rfornarotto@oll.org for the next steps.
