What We Do: Our focus is to educate and inform local citizens in the Alamance county, NC area about life issues, such as abortion, infanticide, euthanasia, and assisted suicide.
How We Do This: Education is our first focus. Need someone to provide a presentation to a church group, civic organization, book club, or Sunday school? Need a pro-life source for an article, a school paper, or a community forum? Have a question about a life-related issue? We provide all of these, and more
Education is also provided through community events. Every May, we have a booth at the Burlington Carousel Festival where we highlight the development of pre-born children using models, and educating those interested in how a child grows in utero, and about how the pre-born child is just one of us – only living, growing, and developing in the womb of the child’s mother.
Every Mother’s Day, we sponsor a full page ad in our local print newspaper, providing a positive, life-affirming message about the right to life, and against those who seek a culture of death. Hundreds of local individuals and their churches help to pay for this educational ad. Our Mother’s Day ad is also an opportunity for networking with other local pro-life individuals and congregations.
We also sponsor pro-life electronic billboards on local highways. These ads remind those passing by that a pre-born child is worthy of respect, love, and care, and that there are alternatives to abortion in a crisis pregnancy, and those ads provide numbers for mothers and families to reach out for needed help.
On an as-needed basis, we also provide support for women in crisis pregnancies. We also support local crisis pregnancy ministries, such as A Heart’s Cry and Alamance Pregnancy Services
We also participate in and support state (North Carolina Right to Life) and national (National Right to Life) efforts on behalf of our most vulnerable citizens – unborn children, the disabled, the handicapped, the elderly, and the dying.
What you can do: We welcome volunteers. However much or little time you have available, your efforts are welcomed. If you don’t know a lot, that’s OK, too – we’re all learning. You, too, can make a difference in the lives of children not yet born, their mothers and fathers, and their extended families.
