Life Points

Freedom Through Faith

Called to Freedom

As we reflect upon the freedoms we have here in America, we at Align also look back at how we’ve seen God call young parents we serve to freedom in Him over the years. Take our client, Thalia, for example. Thalia did not have a job and was living in a small apartment with a relative. When her boyfriend found out she was pregnant, he encouraged her to get an abortion.

So, Thalia came to us for help.

When we talked with her about her spiritual beliefs, she said, “God has not been in my life for a long time, and I don’t feel Him anymore.” Our director told Thalia about God’s faithfulness, grace, and deep love for her and then shared the gospel with her.

Thank You, Serve Groups!

This past spring, we had a number of community and church groups assist with cleanup and other much-needed improvements at a few of our Align Pregnancy Services locations.

A big shoutout to the following serve groups who've helped to keep our centers clean and presentable so clients can continue to feel safe and valued:

Ephrata Community Church
ACTS Covenant Fellowship Youth
LCBC Manheim

We truly appreciate all your help. Our centers have never looked better!

Prayer Request: Healing for Our Abortion Recovery Clients

Abortion is hard to talk about, especially for many of those who have experienced it. Many of these women suffer greatly, experiencing regret, shame, depression, suicidal thoughts, and more. And the enemy loves to keep them in their pain, blinding them with the belief that they're not worthy of God's forgiveness.

But at Align, we see that lie. And we cast it away.

Align offers hope for women struggling to find emotional and spiritual healing after going through the trauma of an abortion. Whether their abortion was five months ago or five years ago, we are here to help.

That's why this month, we're asking you to pray for the women currently attending our abortion recovery group. We pray that each woman would attend every session and experience the freedom of forgiveness and healing brought only through faith in the Lord.
