Thanks to you 1,943 babies have been saved. Over 5,650 positive spiritual decisions have been made and over 21,500 men, women and babies have been impacted by Informed Choices Medical Clinics here in Iowa. Because of you lives have been saved and changed, and mothers, fathers and grandparents have been spared the lifelong pain of abortion.
On behalf of them, thank you for saving their lives and giving them hope and a future. We can’t help but think of all the families that are rejoicing this Christmas season because they came to one of our clinics and were met with the truth and love. Each divine appointment has been a hard-fought spiritual battle for the life of a mother and a child. We could not have done it without you!
Liam is just one of those sweet stories. His mother was in her second year of college, with a six-year old and was going through a bad divorce. Abortion was the only option that was given her from his father. Liam’s mother, Michaela, needed to find out how far along she was in her pregnancy. She came to us for an ultrasound and she found so much more. Here are Michaela’s own words:
“You all have been so helpful. I would have had an abortion if I had not seen my little Liam on the ultrasound. I had an abortion scheduled. I am so thankful I cancelled it. You have been there for me through the ups and downs, prayed with me and helped me with all kinds of baby stuff. Now the boys and I are going to church; I have never been so full and happy and I am back in school.”
Every day, your support makes stories like Liam’s and Michaela’s possible.
I wish I could tell you each one of our precious stories, but there just isn’t enough time here on earth. That will have to wait until we get to heaven. Talk about exceeding Joy! We will get to see all the lives that were touched by this ministry… all the generations!
Today, we’re launching our 2019 Year End Campaign!
We need your help to make 2020 a pivotal year. Under served women who are abortion-vulnerable face a higher risk of STD exposure and broken relationships. Therefore, we will be honing our preventive medical services to focus on Relationship Coaching, Natural Family Planning FEMM Health, STD testing and treatment. Your financial gifts to Informed Choices Medical Clinics will be stewarded to have a more focused impact!
Our goal for this campaign is to raise $250,000 by December 31st.
Would you be willing to make a special year end donation of $50, $100 or more to help us meet our goal to save more lives from the pain of abortion? Would you please pray about giving a generous year end gift?
Your continued support is vital to doing this LIFE-SAVING work!
Today, more than ever before, we need to be able to shine light on the life in the womb. Your gift today will help us reach more women like Michaela and sweet baby Liam in their time of need!
Together we are shining the light of God’s love!
Thank you for your prayers and support. May you have a joyful Thanksgiving and Christmas Season!
Working with you to bring Iowa back to LIFE,
