1200test

Throughout the course of human history, our heavenly Father has granted His creation divine opportunity to have a significant impact on the course of a nation or perhaps the world.  These moments in time are widely known as  kairos moments or the appointed time for the purpose of God.

While it would be easy to believe that kairos moments are reserved for His choicest servants (a.k.a the evangelist, pastor, or prophet), the truth is, God will use any yielded heart to accomplish His work.  He is simply looking for the one who will say yes, when everyone else says no.

The Women’s Clinic of Columbus has been extended such an opportunity.  In fact, the weightiness of what we were being asked to do caused me to take stock of what has already been accomplished.  We rejoice in knowing that 4,500 free pregnancy tests have been administered, 1,600 free ultrasounds have been performed, and 1,800 babies have been saved from abortion—in only three years!!! The Lord has done great things through this ministry, and now He desires to do more. He has asked us to double our efforts!

Doubling the number of babies saved would mean 1,200 in 2012. At first, the thought made me queasy. To make this happen would require more staff, more volunteers, more money (actually much more money) more space, more everything…I felt as if I was already maxing out my faith to maintain what we are currently doing…double….really?

Within five minutes something unexpected, yet familiar occurred.  Peace! And as I embraced the peace I was able to embrace the challenge.  We WILL save 1,200 babies from abortion in 2012—with your help! TWC’s kairos moment was a call to action for the staff and volunteers—true enough; but it was also a call to action for you. We are asking you to join with us to save 1,200 babies in 2012.

The number of abortion minded clients visiting TWC has already increased dramatically. Soon we will need to increase our staff to meet the demand. Today I am asking you to help us lay the foundation for 2012.  If every friend, long lost friend, and friend of a friend would give a special gift of $12 to the work of TWC, we could have a strong 4th quarter start. These dollars will go towards revitalizing volunteer recruiting efforts, increasing staff, and improving our outreach to the abortion minded client. All of which are necessary to save 1,200 babies next year. Won’t you join our effort today?

I know that the demands of this life can sometimes cause us to lose sight of things that have eternal significance. Yet, I am convinced that there is no modern day battle greater or more important than the fight for innocent life. I like the way Solomon put it in Proverbs 24:11-12. It reads: Rescue the Perishing, don’t hesitate to step in and help. If you say “Hey that’s none of my business”, does that get you off the hook? Someone is watching you, you know.  Someone not impressed with weak excuses. Solomon is recorded in the Bible as the wisest and wealthiest man ever known, will you take his advice?  Help us meet our goal, give today and encourage everyone you know to do the same!

This time of year, we find ourselves giving thanks for so many things, especially the life-saving ministry of The Women’s Clinic.

We are thankful for the clients who seek hope at TWC, for the dedicated volunteers and staff, and for our friends and partners who have supported our work this year.

Together we have saved over 600 babies this year, shared the Gospel with over 350 clients and taught classes and distributed baby supplies to over 200 families.  However you have helped, THANK YOU.

What are you thankful for?  We’d like to hear from you!
