Families with infants and toddlers living within the Tamaqua Area School District are the focus of a new family ministry at Zion Lutheran Church.

Zion’s will be distributing free diapers on the third Saturday of each month, by appointment only. Proof of residency, but not financial status, photo identification and preregistration are required.

Each 50-pack bundle of diapers will also come with a pack of wipes. Participants will be provided one bundle of diapers per child, per month, subject to availability. Diaper sizes range from newborn to size 6.

For more information, or to register, call 570-668-2180 or visit Zion’s website at www.ziontamaqua.com. Look for the ministries link and select diaper ministry.

Today is the deadline to register for this month’s distribution. Distribution will take place on Saturday.

Zion’s is located at Mauch Chunk and Greenwood streets.
