Summary
A common accusation from pro-abortion advocates is that the pro-life movement does not care for babies or women after birth. Well, on this episode that claim is completely shattered as a woman tells her story about how Students for Life's resource initiative connected her to hope & help at MiraVia. MiraVia provides young women the support they need to embrace motherhood, helps them cultivate friendships with other mothers, and offers them housing completely free of charge until the child is two years old. WOW!
P.S. Don't miss our upcoming National Church Simulcast Event, “Standing with Her Sunday,” on August 27, 2023, at 7:00 p.m. ET. There will be various national pro-life leaders there informing the church on how to be a light for women in unexpected pregnancies and led them to hope, healing, and non-violent resources. Sign up now at StandingWithHerSunday.com to host this event at your church, or to watch it virtually from your home.
