News Update

 

Gosnell practices in NYC also – is this what Gov. Cumo wants to increase?

Besides our mission to network NYC pastors, we have also been able to reach and counsel pregnant women considering abortions to make the “better choice” and keep the baby. One recent example involved a Columbia University student who became pregnant and went to the local Planned Parenthood to have an abortion – but for some reason did not go through with it. Through a mutual friend we were able to connect her to a local crisis pregnancy center and she decided to keep the baby and was exploring the wonderful option of adoption. We give thanks to God for sparing this precious unborn life and continue to pray for this young woman and her baby.

To God be the glory!
