Abbey raises money to help needy families

Led by Printery House employees Cathy Brown (left) and Kim Siddens, the employees, seminarians and monks of Conception Abbey raised nearly $1000 to buy Christmas presents for five area families in need. Recipients of the gifts included: a single mother of five children, a single mother with two boys, a young couple that welcomed a new baby in late December, a single mother of an 8-month-old girl, and a single mother of a 5-year-old boy. The gifts ranged from toys and clothing to gift certificates from Hy-Vee grocery stores. One family received propane to offset their costly heating expenses.
