Two things have happened this year that have never happened before in the history of this ministry.
First, we have served more women this year than any prior year in our ministry’s existence. With several weeks left in this year (as of this writing), we have served over 1,760 women.
This represents thousands of hours of crisis counseling, ultrasound exams, Gospel sharing, and being a voice for those who have no voice. It also represents lives saved and hearts spared from abortion. Praise God!
Unfortunately, another record has been broken this year. Never before in the history of this ministry have we ever faced a financial deficit the size of the one we face today. As we end the year, donations have fallen short of ministry expenses by approximately $150,000.
This deficit represents a very significant and urgent challenge for CPC. We are hoping and praying to see this deficit reduced as much as possible (or completely… bold prayers!) before the end of this year.
I know $150,000 seems overwhelming. Some people would be tempted not to give because they may think they could not give enough to make a difference. However, every donation counts. Please help us reduce this deficit by sending a gift today.
Although we are helping a record number of women, there are thousands each year who are not served by our pregnancy medical clinics and resource centers. They choose abortion and miss an opportunity to experience the Gospel in a tangible way though our centers. We hope and pray that we will not have to make any cuts that will jeopardize reaching more women in 2013.
Please help us eliminate this deficit before year’s end. Again, anything you can do to help today is needed and much appreciated.
Blessings,
Toby DeBause
President
