WHY WE MUST ENGAGE LOCAL CHURCHES

The Church holds the ultimate key to victory on the issue of abortion and is central to accomplishing Care Net’s vision of “a culture where women and men faced with pregnancy decisions are transformed by the Gospel of Jesus Christ and empowered to choose life for their unborn children and abundant life for their families.”

CHALLENGE #1

The majority of Christians support abortion.

55% of Catholics and Protestants believe that abortion should be legal in all or most cases.1

57% of Christians agreed with the statement “people of faith can support abortion rights without contradicting their faith” over the statement “people of faith must protect the rights of the fetus.”2

CHALLENGE #2

Christians who attend church regularly, are having abortions.

4 OUT OF 10 WOMEN

Were attending a church once a month or more at the time of their first abortion3

5 OUT OF 10 MEN

Were attending a church once a month or more at the time of their partner’s first abortion4

HOW WE ENGAGE LOCAL CHURCHES

1. Through our Making Life Disciples program, provide training to local churches that equips them to start a pregnancy center, medical mobile unit, abortion recovery ministry, or another life-affirming ministry to women and men considering abortion.

2. Invite Christians to join our Abundant Life Prayer Network to pray regularly for women and men facing pregnancy decisions.

3. Create and distribute resources that help Pro-choice Christians view the life issue through the light of God’s Word.
