Before you even know you’re pregnant, the baby’s heart is beating (at 5 weeks). Inside is a precious life God has created and deserves a chance at life. We were thankful to hear of the life-saving ministry of Crossroads Pregnancy Center located close-by in Mifflin and in Huntingdon and Mifflin counties. They offer help, hope, and healing in Jesus’ name. Sheila Werner, from the Mifflin office, shared about their programs and volunteer opportunities.
Some of Crossroads Pregnancy Center’s programs include: Bridges (earn while you learn), Pastoral Care, Sexual Integrity, Men’s Counseling, and Post Abortion Recovery. It was encouraging to hear how the center builds relationships with those that come there. Who do you know someone that could benefit from their free programs? Crossroads depends on donations and volunteers to offer the services they have.

Now they help about 1,000 people a year. What vision do you have? How can you make a difference?
Through our Baby Shower on March 16, each lady at LIFT helped make a difference in the life a women that completes the Bridges program. Sheila returned to Crossroads Pregnancy Center with a car load of baby items!
And, with all baby showers, there were games, decorations, and favors. Thanks Mashelle for making this a true baby shower with fun games and all the creative details.
Lori encouraged us with words from scripture. God’s nature is GOOD. He can never produce evil. Life and children are GOOD! How many times do we put something or a thought above God? Why do we turn to things that are not good (sin) when GOD IS GOOD.
MARK YOUR CALENDARS NOW: Next LIFT event: April 20, 9:00-11:00 "Give Time." We will be volunteering at Abundant Blessings Thrift Shop.
