In pregnancy medical clinic ministry work, there are many losses that we grieve on a daily basis. Whether it be a personal loss, experiencing grief after a client chooses abortion, lack of connection with a client or coworker, disrespect from the pro-choice supporters, or loss of productivity due to compassion fatigue. These situations must be grieved and addressed in a productive way to increase morale and maintain a mission-focused environment.

Given the increased controllers of information, we can never move forward if asking the question "Why?" is impeded or discouraged. In this workshop, participants will learn to identify how intellectual curiosity is being discouraged to the point that even questioning abortion or its alternatives is being labels as fake news and disinformation and will learn what FFL is actively doing to reach the younger generation (HS and College outreach) to question abortion to uncover the Truth.

We would never guilt, coerce or cajole our clients into choosing life. Why do we continue to guilt & cajole our pastors into speaking about life. It's time to serve our pastors with the same care and intentionality that we do our clients. They need us and the expertise we bring to the church. Many of them just don't know it yet. Together we can change that reality and bring pastor and pregnancy center leader together to see the Sanctity of Life lifted up in every church.
