Presbyterians Pro-Life launches new Partners for Life webpage!
Many PC(USA) congregations demonstrate pro-life values on a regular basis in a variety of ways. Partners for Life is designed to provide a way for us to identify pro-life congregations and provide training, resources, and encouragement. Our Partners for Life webpage will provide a place where ideas can be shared, resources quickly located, and new connections developed. We hope that Partner churches will enhance the work of Presbyterians Pro-Life in calling the PC(USA) back to a Biblical perspective on human life at every stage of development.
To learn more:Visit our Partners for Life webpage and read the story of our news Partner Church.

Use the overture process to change PC(USA) policy on abortion
What churches do to create a culture that cherishes life, cares for women, and ministers grace to God's people is extremely important. What we say to the world as a denomination matters too. The way to effect change in the latter is through engaging in the overture process. Click on the above link for information and sample overtures to help you make a difference!

RCRC's views on abortion are out of alignment with the PC(USA)!
Recent articles posted on RCRC's website show how extreme their advocacy is for abortion rights.
PPL's Executive Director, Marie Bowen, exposes the rift between RCRC's viewpoint and the policy statements of the PC(USA). It's time to cut the ties that PARO, Women's Ministry, and Washington Office have with RCRC!
