Introducing Bridges by Choices

Bridges is our Church Partnership Program. It exists to equip members of the 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.

Is Your Church Prepared?

1 in 4

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

62%

62% of abortive women have some affiliation with religion, and a majority of them are Christians.

>50%

More than half of churchgoers who have had an abortion report that no one at church knows they have had a terminated pregnancy.
LifeWay Research (2015)

1 in 3

1 in 3 women attended a Christian church regularly at the time of their first abortion.

<50%

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

As we consider these statistics, we are compelled to respond by offering the Church training and tools needed to change this narrative. Bridges is helping to make the Church the first place and a safe place for men, women, and families to talk about important and sensitive life issues.

“Bridging” the Gap From Fear to Hope

Is your church prepared to have a life saving response to the next unplanned pregnancy in your church?

Do post-abortive individuals find your church to be a safe place to heal?
Are you ready and willing to join us in the active life ministry of offering compassion, hope, discipleship, and Christ-like love to those making difficult pregnancy decisions?

Our Bridges Partners will complete the Making Life Disciples Course. If you would like more information on how we can help those in your care, please reach out.

Making Life Disciples

Making Life Disciples is an interactive basic training course that equips members of every church community to champion compassion, offer hope, and practical help to men and women making difficult pregnancy decisions and to those who have experienced abortion. This course is for anyone passionate about life ministry. Making Life Disciples will empower church leaders and members to effectively address present and past pregnancy decisions with care and confidence. Participation is a powerful first step in becoming an active and growing pro-abundant life church.

In addition to Making Life Disciples, Bridges Partners are trained in Post-Abortive Care using the revised Forgiven and Set Free Bible study. Our goal is to help your church community continue to build healthy families by fostering healthy transparency, healing, and practical Biblical discipleship.
