There are women in your community that just found out they are pregnant and feel completely alone. And some of them may even be in your congregation. The abortion rate is the same inside the church as it is outside the church. Women are sitting in our pews and are contemplating life and death decisions. As the church, you have a unique opportunity to make your church one of the first places a girl runs to in that
situation instead of away from because of shame and guilt. You can partner with your local pregnancy centers and let them know that your church is a safe place for their clients to find practical, spiritual and emotional support. These new moms and dads can hear the gospel, be discipled and become a part of a spiritual family. They can raise their kids in your church and find a place of belonging.
