Building Healthy Families

Posted October 1, 2024

Building Healthy Families: Over 40 percent of pregnancies, or over 2.3 million pregnancies in the U.S. are unintended. The role of life-affirming, Christian unplanned pregnancy support services, adoption agencies, and pregnancy resource centers is increasingly important. It’s imperative that women facing an unplanned pregnancy receive Christ-centered help so that they can choose life. Research what organizations and services are available in your area, and then plan to get involved. Volunteer, serve on the board, donate needed items, and/or provide your financial support. By working together in God’s name, these efforts make a real difference in the lives of so many, born and yet unborn! Lutheran Family Service www.LutheranFamilyService.org
