Last year, four Sterling Heights parishes, Our Lady of Czestochowa, Ss. Cyril & Methodius, St. Jane Frances de Chantal and St. Rene Goupil, formed a Walking with Moms in Need (WWMIN) ministry to help women and families in challenging pregnancy and parenting situations.
Their first task was to identify the pregnancy resources available to women and families in need in our local area.

Efforts are also underway to strengthen the support networks in the parishes for moms, families, and pregnant women in need

Their goal to create a newly renovated baby store in the Gianna House basement was completed on
