Members of the Parish of the Precious Blood Holy Rosary Blanket Ministry in Caribou recently stopped by Cary Medical Center to donate handmade blankets for Jefferson Cary Cancer Center patients, as well as newborn babies born on the hospital’s Maternal/Child Unit. The ladies group has been making blankets for several years, donating them to local groups, with the message, “As you use your blanket, may it wrap you in warmth, comfort and His love.” From left are Jennifer Plant, RN, Jefferson Cary Cancer Center manager; Blanket Ministry members Pat Caspersen, Ruth Gahagan and Judy Bougie; and Karen Woodall, RN, Emergency Department and inpatient nurse manager. For information about the ministry call Caspersen at 496-0431. The ministry operates solely from donations.
