Spring Brings Baby Bottles!
Lighthouse is so grateful for the more than 50 church, school and community partners who are joining us this spring to bring beauty from brokenness in the lives of those we serve.
While an unexpected pregnancy may seem overwhelming at first, the confidential services and compassionate support of Lighthouse helps transform these “burdens” into blessings! The free ultrasound women and couples receive on their first visit provides a loving first look at their unborn child. The ultrasound provides a medical confirmation of pregnancy, as well as a new perspective on the unplanned situation. No longer is the pregnancy simply a problem to be taken care of, but rather a little person to be cared for. Lighthouse staff help women and couples to carefully consider their options in a safe setting; offer adoption information and referrals; and provide, if desired, parenting support throughout pregnancy and the first year of parenting. For those struggling with a past abortion decision, Lighthouse offers caring counsel to grieve and heal from that experience. STD testing and relationship support are also available at all 3 Lighthouse locations.
The Baby Bottle Boomerang offers churches and other community groups free bottles to distribute, to be returned to the same location filled with checks, cash or change — to help save and change lives through the work of Lighthouse, a faith-based 501C3 organization. Each baby bottle tells the story of a mom or dad who found life-enhancing support at Lighthouse! Typically this fund and awareness raiser runs from Mothers’ Day to Fathers’ Day, but Lighthouse will gladly adjust the timing and wording on the bottle wrappers to fit YOUR schedule! To reserve bottles or request our special “coins” for online giving, please click here. Thank you!
Sleepy Man to Perform at HarvestFEST November 4
Lighthouse invites you to take steps for life by attending HarvestFest 2017 on Saturday, November 4. We are eagerly preparing for this family-friendly fundraiser which takes place 4:30-9 pm at Powerhouse Christian Church in Wyckoff, NJ.
Many wonderful things are in store for this evening – all culminating in a 7 pm concert by the world-famous Sleepy Man band. Adults and children of all ages will find food and fun activities to their liking!
Start your evening off with a delicious supper from one of NJ’s famous food trucks. Then work off your calories with rock climbing, line dancing or square dancing. Beginners welcome: talented caller Paul Ingis of PI Squared and Christine Crawley of New School of Dance Arts will show you the steps! Children will enjoy the craft and game room, where they will make their own special memento of the night. Refreshments and homemade desserts will be served.
Dress in your best western or country look to compete for an individual, couple or family prize. You can also earn extra door prize tickets by bringing a pack of diapers (or more!) to help build the world’s largest diaper bale to support families in need.
The highlight of HarvestFEST is a concert by bluegrass band, Sleepy Man. The band is comprised of three talented brothers who hail from New Jersey (plus a friend on bass). The Mizzone brothers amazed Lighthouse supporters in 2013 and 2015 with their unique blend of folk, country and pop, and their stage presence. The world-renowned teens made quite an entrance onto the music scene, with their YouTube videos, now eclipsing over 30 million views. They have performed at the Grand Ole Opry, on the Late Show with David Letterman, NBC’s The Today Show, and ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!.
Lighthouse is honored to host Sleepy Man for a rare New Jersey performance to help save and change lives through our Paterson, Wayne and Hackensack centers. All proceeds from HarvestFEST will fund the free, life-enhancing support Lighthouse provides to women, men and teens facing or at-risk-for unplanned pregnancies.
Don’t miss this opportunity to see these passionate young musicians upclose, performing with a purpose! Tickets are $15/person in advance and $20 at the door; or $60/per immediate family in advance and $70 at the door. To learn more or purchase tickets online, please visit itickets.com Thank you!
