About the PRC |

|
The Pregnancy Resource Center serves the Bay County area by providing services such as pregnancy testing/counseling, prenatal parenting classes, single parenting classes, abortion recovery classes, classes for fathers, and a variety of material needs such as maternity clothes, infant and toddler clothing, cribs, car seats, strollers, etc. As God provides we are able to continue offering these services to young ladies in the Bay County area. Of the women served in 2007 more than 1/3 were under the age of 19. It is because of God's faithfulness to provide friends and volunteers in our community that we are able to meet the needs of these very young girls facing crisis pregnancies. |

What action, if any, do you
A girl came in today who was abortion minded... the volunteer was counseling her, she accepted Christ, and chose life! I saw another girl today, abortion minded, having had one previous abortion and 3 living children, she chose life ...she wants to attend classes to keep her plugged into a positive environment.
From a client: The Pregnancy Center was really there for me through everything and gave me the support I needed. I have had so many people in my life tell me that I would never make it but they believed in me and supported me through my pregnancy and deliver. This has made such a change in my life. mbers to take? Add a "Find out more" link to additional information that you may have hosted on your website

| Volunteer Spotlight |
| Connie Ashbrook
The Pregnancy Resource Center would like to thank Connie Ashbrook for serving as a volunteer for so many years. While the exact number is not known we are grateful that Connie has given more than 15 years as a volunteer in education, counseling, and administration.
Connie has been instrumental in helping the executive director pilot several new programs at the Center. She helped move the ministry from one that simply offered tests and baby items to an environment that provided support to girls on multiple levels inlcuding education and developing parenting skills. She has also served as a board member for many years and continues to provide a support to the center administratively.
Thank you Connie for serving the Lord in this way and providing leadership. We are blessed to have you as a part of the ministry.

| Baby Bottle Campaign |
Mother's Day - Father's Day
We will be having our Baby Bottle campaign from Mother's Day through Father's Day this year. If your church or group would like to participate please contact Connie or Beverly for information on getting bottles, bulletin inserts, instructions for the campaign and signup information. You can download the instruction letter from our website at www.pregnancysupport.info/events.php
This campaign will help us to purchase supplies such as car seats, cribs, and educational material for the girls that come to the center for training. In 2007 God was so good to us as he allowed us to serve more than 560 girls at the center with services such as baby supplies, education, parenting support and much more. Your help with our baby bottle campaign makes this possible. | |
| Business Partner |
