Pro-love, Pro-life
VISION: For every girl with an unplanned pregnancy to have a church to go to for spiritual, emotional and physical support. MISSION: To inspire and equip the church to love on single and pregnant young women and their families. WHAT EMBRACE GRACE DOES:
Crosspoint Church-Hays has partnered with Embrace Grace, Inc., a non-profit organization formed for the purpose of providing emo
tional, practical and spiritual support for single, young women and their families who find themselves in an unintended pregnancy. The primary goal of Embrace Grace is to empower the church to be a safe and non-judging place for the girls to run to when they find out they are pregnant, instead of the last place they are welcomed because of shame and guilt. Embrace Grace provides curriculum and resources for the church to implement programs and become a Pro-Love church. If the church, the Body of Christ, will join together to support these girls who choose life, young moms will be more open to not aborting their babies. Whether they keep their baby or choose adoption, Embrace Grace is a support system for them as they begin their journey of being a young mother or blessing another family with their baby. Emotionally and spiritually healthy moms and dads parent emotionally and spiritually healthy babies. Through the Embrace Grace program, lives are saved and generations are being changed. God loves these moms and we do too. WHY WE EXIST:
Most churches advocate life and discourage women from getting abortions, but once a brave and courageous girl chooses life, a lot of times the church steps away and has nothing to offer her for support at that point. She is then left with nine months of being scared, worried and feeling alone. She journeys into a season of being a single mom without direction and guidance from a spiritual family. This is where the Body of Christ can minister to women who are desperately searching for a Savior. This is where we can speak into their lives and hearts that will have an impact for generations to come! WHAT WE DO:
We speak love and encouragement into the lives of these mommies-to-be, new single moms. We meet with them in a safe and non-judging support group for 12 weeks, throw a baby shower for them, as well as pouring out love on them. They will be prayed over and told about God's lavish love for them and their baby. They will be able to make some friends and know that they are not alone on their journey.
