NEWSLETTER - Spring 2025

​

Dear Friends of the Pregnancy Center –

 

The Walk for Life is scheduled for Saturday, May 10, 2025.  What can you do this year to take a stand for life?  Join us at the Pregnancy Center parking lot with registration beginning at 8:30 am.  We are looking for individuals who will walk and collect sponsors.  We’re also looking for contact with people for churches and groups. If you could recommend contact from your church family, we would greatly appreciate it.  Contact us by email for more information and to receive a walker’s packet.  There will be games for kids in the parking lot before and after the walk and light refreshments.  Walkers with sponsors will earn a T-shirt.   

 

We’re really excited this year to do the walk on Mother’s Day weekend.  What better way to celebrate mothers and babies than helping the Pregnancy Center save lives and make life better for moms, babies and young families in central Iowa.

 

One of our challenges in the past few months has been that there is no longer OB or delivery services in Jasper County.  This is a problem all over rural America.  Our clients now travel to Grinnell, Pella or Des Moines.  Our concern is that they may be missing prenatal appointments, which is as critical as delivery of the babies.  One of our new goals is assisting with reliable transportation for moms who have bald tires and empty gas tanks. 

 

Save the date for our annual Fall Banquet, which is scheduled for November 22, 2025.  More to come closer to the date.

 

We thank you for your continued interest and support in our mission.  Without you, this ministry would not be possible.  Please continue to keep our staff, our board and our clients in your prayers.  We are hopeful that more legislation supporting life in Iowa will come to pass this year.

 

Feel free to always contact us with questions or information.   

 

In God’s Gracious Love,

Rita, Sheila and Staff
