State Prayer
"Act of Faith"
O my God, I firmly believe that You are one God in three divine Persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I believe that Your divine Son became man, died for our sins, and that He will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe these truths which the Holy Catholic Church teaches, because You have revealed them, Who can never deceive nor be deceived.
Amen.

We have had 22 visits so far this month with 100% of clients initially classified as abortion minded or abortion vulnerable. We can say that 100% of our clients have chosen life so far this year!
Thanks for your part in making this happen, you're all a blessing!
