"Being involved with the PRC allows our church to directly touch lives we would never have the opportunity to minister to in any other way. Partnering with the PRC extends our reach and helps us to be wise stewards - using our resources to accomplish things for His glory that we never could have accomplished on our own." 
-Pastor Jason Moore, First Baptist Church

Did you see our newest Baby Bottle Blessings video yet?
This month in the parenting classes...

A teacher got a text from a young mom she still keeps in close contact with, telling her how grateful she is that the teachers in the class taught them so well about the dangers of choking for small children. She credits the class and teachers for her knowing exactly what to do when her baby recently choked while eating. 

A new mom has been working hard to get set up on her own, understanding the importance of hard work and dedication to take care of her child. The teachers have enjoyed watching this mom mature and grow as she's attended our classes and earned things for her baby.  

One mom-to-be shares, "The classes at PRC have taught me so many things, and it's brought my relationship with God closer than ever before. The classes have helped me realize what a baby needs, and I've met some amazing ladies who have answered so many of my questions about God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. I am so blessed to have found such an amazing organization who offers so many helpful resources." This mom originally came to our clinic with plans to end her pregnancy in abortion. What an amazing transformation!

WE ARE SO PROUD OF ALL OF OUR CLASS PARTICIPANTS! 
Thank you to our many donors and volunteers for partnering with us to make their stories, SUCCESS STORIES! 
JANUARY CHURCH OF THE MONTH
Frederick Boulevard Baptist is the first church of our new Church of the Month promotion! Do you know the really neat history between our organization and FBBC? You can read more about that here on our website.

FBBC has been a solid supporter with a portion of their church mission budget since our beginning, so as we start this new promotion we go back to our roots. THANK YOU, Frederick Boulevard Baptist Church for your past, current and future support! You have touched thousands of lives!

Throughout the month of January we have been promoting Frederick's ministries and schedules to our program participants. We've also been showing the staff special appreciation with lunch, prayers and encouraging notes.

Please be sure to forward to all of your friends that attend FBBC!
DID YOU KNOW?? 
On January 13, 1984, President Ronald Reagan issued a proclamation designating January 22 as the first National Sanctity of Human Life Day. January 22, 1973, was the day the U.S. Supreme Court legalized abortion-on-demand in all 50 states.

Churches around the United States use the Sunday closest to that date to celebrate God's gift of life, commemorate the many lives lost to abortion, and commit themselves to protecting human life at every stage.

We recently celebrated Sanctity of Human Life Sunday. Join us in prayer as churches throughout our area kicked off Baby Bottle Blessings events to raise awareness and money to protect lives in our 13-county area.

It's not too late to get started with a Baby Bottle Blessing event to help women in unplanned pregnancies. No church is too big or too small!  Contact us for more information.
