Welcome, Baby Zariyah! A Sweet Start to a Beautiful Story

Welcome, Baby Zariyah!

A Sweet Start to a Beautiful Story

We had the sweetest little visitor recently—baby Zariyah! Her mama, Sha’Naya, came in for newborn photos, and it’s safe to say we were all smiling the entire time. Watching the love between this beautiful mama and her baby girl was such a sweet reminder of why we do what we do each day. Moments like these are a gift.

We’re so grateful to walk alongside Sha’Naya in this season and can’t wait to see little Zariyah grow in the years to come.

Meet Our 2025 Keynote Speaker, Dr. Bill Lile, The Prolife Doc

Meet Dr. Bill Lile

Care Net Peninsula's 2025 Peninsula4Life Dinner Keynote Speaker

Dr. William Lile, known nationwide as “The ProLife Doc,” is a board-certified OB/GYN, former department chair, and founder of the ProLife Doc ministry. In 1999, he took over Pensacola’s largest abortion provider, and on day one, ended all abortion services and referrals. Since then, he’s been on a mission to educate and inspire, using his medical expertise and biblical convictions to defend the lives of the unborn.

Dr. Lile specializes in diagnosing and treating complex conditions before birth. From performing fetal heart surgeries to administering blood transfusions to unborn babies, his work presents a powerful and undeniable truth that these unborn children are patients who deserve the same rights and protections as anyone else

Through powerful visuals, real medical knowledge, and unapologetic biblical truth, Dr. Lile speaks across the country at churches, schools, and pregnancy resource centers, equipping others to stand boldly for life. He’s also the creator of the ProLife Doc Curriculum—an 8-module educational series that features stunning medical animations, expert commentary, and interactive workbook content.

Dr. Lile’s message is clear, hopeful, and deeply compelling: a patient is a person, no matter how small—and every life is made in the image of God.

Moments in Motherhood

Moments in Motherhood

We recently had the joy of hosting a mom and baby photo session right here in our offices, and the results were absolutely heartwarming! A little one bundled in soft fabrics, adorned with bright florals and angel wings, while a proud mama wrapped her baby girl in love and gentle kisses. These precious moments captured not only the sweetness of new life but also the powerful bond between mother and daughter. It was a beautiful reminder of why we serve this mission each day, and we LOVE getting to see this space filled with LIFE!
