Introducing Bridges by Choices

Around one in four women will have an abortion at some point in their life.

<50%

<50% of post-abortive women believe the church can support them.

Bridges is our Church Partnership Program. It exists to equip members of Christ’s church to become safe, educated, and effective encouragers for those experiencing an unintended pregnancy, those considering abortion, and those who have participated in a past abortion. Our desire is to build the church as a first and safe place to talk about unintended pregnancy and abortion and to connect our clients to the Church – a healthy body equipped to provide practical support and life discipleship long after they leave our care.

Mission Of Bridges

Our Bridges partnership seeks to build unity in Christ’s Church by providing opportunity for cross-church communication and ministry networking. Choices Pregnancy Centers are able to connect men and women needing help to a ready Life Team at one of our trained church partners.

Our network of church partners empowers women and men looking for safe, confidential and practical help as they navigate an unintended pregnancy or heal from a past abortion. Testimonies, prayer requests, and an invitation to contact one of our participating churches for personal connection and informed support is increasing awareness that Life disciples are ready and available in our churches. Our Life Disciples are resourced and ready to be that first connection and to have compassionate, life-affirming conversations.
