When an unintended pregnancy interrupts the “script” a young woman has sketched out for her life, many conflicting emotions compete simultaneously for center stage: panic, fear, anger, guilt and more.
The good news, which she needs to hear, is that God’s grace will meet her at her point of need, and His sufficiency will abundantly supply. One way He often does that – in fact, the most common way – is through His people.
Pro-life pregnancy centers and medical clinics are on the front lines in many communities. They offer essential services to women facing an unexpected pregnancy, as well as an opportunity to discuss vital alternatives to abortion. Medical clinics offer pregnancy confirmation through ultrasound, which gives the young mother an opportunity to view the amazing development of her preborn baby.
A woman’s family members and the father of the baby often struggle during this time, and pro-life centers present a safe place to deal with their own feelings and responsibilities regarding her pregnancy.
These vital community organizations play a valuable role in helping to protect women’s health and allowing them to discuss all their options. That’s because, unlike abortion clinics, these ministries have no financial interest in which choice the woman makes.
Where to Find Help in Your Community
To find help during an unexpected pregnancy from a local pregnancy center, it’s as easy as visiting Optionline.org and entering your ZIP code! Visitors can also engage in a live chat with a caring peer-counselor who can answer questions and give suggestions of helpful resources.
Another option is Embrace Grace, an outreach that encourages, educates and empowers young, single moms. An unplanned pregnancy doesn’t mean that their life dreams are over. By joining an Embrace Grace group, a woman can learn how to dream big while also receiving help with the practical and spiritual aspects of life. (Find an Embrace Grace group near you at EmbraceGrace.com.)
