An update from Care Net Peninsula in Newport News, Virginia (Va) - Olympians aren't the only ones setting records

Olympians are not the only ones setting records

Summer doesn’t take a break from unplanned pregnancies and neither do we here at Care Net Peninsula. Our clinic is busier than ever before. In fact, we served an all-time record number of women in just the first 7 months of this year (657 to be exact)! We are so grateful to be able to bring lifesaving help and hope to women facing an unplanned pregnancy. 

Many of the women who come through our doors are not making their decision alone. She is often faced with family members and friends counseling her to have an abortion regardless of her desire to carry her baby to birth. As she examines her options, she may be risking many relationships if she chooses life – perhaps even with the father. 

This was the case of a brave woman we served last week who went against culture AND family coercion to choose life for her baby.

We understand that it’s complicated, but we are unshakable in our stand for LIFE. We are so proud of this woman and the many women who choose LIFE regardless of the pressure around her!

So when you pray for this ministry and the women we serve, please also remember to pray for the families and friends who are part of the decision. Pray that they will have hearts towards life; for the mom and for the baby. Your prayers are powerful and are making a difference.
