Abortion Information:

Abortion may seem like the easiest way out of an unplanned pregnancy. Terminating a pregnancy is the fastest “solution” in the eyes of many. However, abortion is not as simple as it sounds. It is a dangerous surgical procedure that is painful for both the mother and her unborn baby. Some may try to tell you that your unborn baby is simply a mass of tissue, and not truly a real “baby” yet. We’ve included a few scientific facts on the development of an unborn child to show how quickly your baby is growing. We hope that this information gives you the courage to choose life for your child. There is help available to you! Financial aid, emotional support, medical services, and a future filled with hope for you and your child!

You don’t need to feel trapped into getting an abortion and then living with the regret of that decision. Your baby is a little person and he/she deserves a chance at life!

Jane Doe Miracle Home Make-Over Update
We are pleased to announce that our Miracle Home Make-Over campaign has officially begun! In July of 2006 we shared the vision for this project with our supporters. Their positive response and support gave us the go-ahead to work towards eliminating some of our greatest concerns at His Caring Place - lack of space for the amount of girls we want to help, room for non-residential ministry to take place, and counseling/education rooms for the girls in the program. Ever since Hurricane Wilma damaged our already - deteriorating Coconut Creek house in 2005, most of you know that our maternity home has been in a much smaller, temporary space in Pompano Beach. Though we've diligently searched out many options, God has continued to confirm our desire to move back home to our Coconut Creek property - the ministry home of His Caring Place for over 20 years. This year of waiting patiently on God's timing has given us the opportunity to lay the groundwork for meeting the needs that a project of this magnitude will require. At this point, we have more than 25 companies on our Miracle Home Make-Over Team, ready to pitch in and help when their turn comes! We look forward to introducing these special individuals to you as the project progresses. We'd like to thank you for your faithful prayers and interest over the past year as we began the first stages of this exciting journey. And we still have many needs to cover! If you can help - please contact Katy Mills at 954-905-5135 or email Newsletter@hiscaringplace.org.
