I was so excited to speak at the Rotary Club meeting today. We had a great luncheon at All-Steak restaurant. Actually, I think I was more excited about sharing our wonderful work at Her Choice Women's center with all the Rotary members. Most of the members had not heard of our organization. So, many of you who were not able to make it, probably want to know what was said, etc... We had lots of questions about what we do, so if you have a question about anything, please leave a comment.
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you.” Jeremiah 1:5
Her Choice is a christian, faith based, and non-profit 501(c3) pregnancy center and certified physiological Lab (clinic) . Many of you may wonder why the name “Her Choice” was chosen. We like to refer to it as Her Choice “For Life” and hope that anyone who walks through our doors would choose life. We want these women to know that we are here to be their advocate through their pregnancy. We present all the facts about the options these young women have, in the hope they will choose to parent their baby or place the child in a loving adoptive home.
I talked about all our free services, such as: pregnancy tests; our limited ultrasound program, which shows the baby and the heartbeat, has caused women who did not want to carry their baby to term, to change their minds; Our parenting program offers the client the opportunity to meet with us monthly to watch films on Baby Care and Parenting and facts about adoption; The Fathers-To-Be are also offered a “fathers mentoring program” with an experienced father; The benefits of adoption; the "In God's Care" program for those who have suffered a miscarriage and need closure; Another program similar to “In God’s Care” except this program provides closure to any woman who had an abortion; We also have a chapel that was donated by several Christian ministries in the Cullman area.
If you are feeling called to help the center by serving on our Board of Directors or in a volunteer capacity, I encourage you to pray about it and contact the center.
We had great response and many questions about our organization. I am very proud of the wonderful volunteers that help make all these programs possible.
God bless!
