Our Lady’s Comforters

Our Lady’s Comforters was founded in 2009 to gather parishioners together and make baby blankets for women and babies in difficult situations. In honor of               St. Mary’s by the Sea’s Centennial Celebration, we have set the goal of sewing 100 baby blankets by the end of this year, which will be donated to the pro-life centers listed below. In order to reach this ambitious target, we need your financial support. On January 28-29 and February 4-5, we will be collecting donations outside the Church after each Mass. Please be as generous as possible to help us to meet this goal.

Our first actual sewing session will be on Saturday, February 18 from 9am to 12pm. Everyone is invited to participate, and NO sewing experience is necessary!

The blankets will be donated to:

– Horizon Pregnancy Center in Huntington Beach

– Life Center in Santa Ana

– Children’s Hospital of Orange County

– His Nesting Place in Long Beach
