It Starts with a DREAM.
Planned Parenthood ... so it's said that 3% of their work is abortion services. I wonder if there are Christian pregnancy/health care centers in NYC ... keeps my dream alive of one day opening/starting a life-affirming, multicultural, multilingual staffed pregnancy/health care center serving a diverse group of people, daily being examples of Christ's love & valuing them as He does. There is a Planned Parenthood about 2-3 subway stops away from me, so this hits real close to home.

As you know I am strongly pro-life. My thoughts on the subject are voluminous and detailed, too long and complicated to write about. But to make abortion illegal is a lost cause for the time being. the culture has fallen too low since the 1960's. before abortion will ever be made illegal, we need to transform the culture into one that values life at all of its stages. That is where we must work. We need as many people like you as possible providing Christian love to women in crisis pregnancies including after their children are born. that is the Christian witness that is required to transform our culture.

Look for Birthright and Project Rachel. I know they have crisis pregnancy centers in the Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens.
