McKendree United Methodist Church members are expecting growth in the nursery and they’re getting prepared for it. The nursery is being placed in a more secure area with doors that will allow for viewing and the nursery is being re-supplied with loads of diapers and wipes and also a baby bed and a changing table.
Church members feel really blessed when they have visiting babies to go along with their own and Stephanie Crawley always has a big grin and open arms for each infant in the nursery. The church members welcome parents to bless them by allowing them to take care of their young children during worship services.
