Alabama church accidentally mixes Easter Eggs filled with medication with ones filled with candy

DAPHNE, Alabama -- Officials with Christ the King Catholic Church are seeking the return of filled Easter eggs from a Sunday event after learning that an egg containing a volunteer's medicine could have been mixed in with those that were hidden for children.

Out of an abundance of caution" officials with the church have requested that parents of children who attended "immediately retrieve" the eggs and keep them in a safe place until they can be returned to the parish office and exchanged for new candy.

"We ask that parents not throw the eggs and their contents away, but return Sunday's eggs to Christ the King Parish Office as immediately as possible," church spokeswoman Mary Mullins said in an email. Volunteers are on site to exchange new candy for the children.
