NERVOUS LOOKING MAN IN A MILITARY UNIFORM knocked atthe door of the Mobile. “What do you do here?” he asked. Upon learning

that we offer pregnancy tests and limited ultrasound and help women and menfacing unplanned pregnancies, he asked if he could bring his girlfriend. When theyarrived, she explained that she had begun to cry when she saw the positive homepregnancy test. She had previously been in an abusive relationship and had anabortion. Now with help from PSC at the Mobile and the loving support of her current boyfriend she is excited about this pregnancy!

“IF I AM PREGNANT I HAVE TO HAVE AN ABORTION,” Kelly said as sheentered the intake room alone, while Aaron spoke with a male advocate. Kelly andAaron came to the Pregnancy Center for a pregnancy test. Through numerous visitswith her advocate, Kelly wrestled with the choices she was facing. Aaron maintained hissupport for her throughout this process. Kelly received ultrasound services and initiallydeclined pictures of the baby. The couple returned and requested the pictures andshortly thereafter chose life.

“I CANNOT HAVE AN ABORTION AGAIN.” Sheila had a previous abortion andbecause of that experience, she was determined to carry this pregnancy to term.She came to the Center seeking information about adoption. Although we are notlicensed to facilitate adoptions, we do offer peer counseling, literature and a referral list of adoption agencies. We provided the information and prayed with her.The last time we talked to Sheila, she was working with an adoption agency andlooking through family profiles to choose a family for her baby. Although we havenot learned Sheila’s final decision, we are encouraged that she chose life and thankful to have provided help.

Dear Friends,

In PSC’s initial year an unpaid director assisted by a couple of volunteers served 13 clientsthrough pregnancy tests and material assistance. Today the center has eight regular staff members, over 50 volunteer support staff, and more than 1,000 partners! Last year 550 womenand men were served through pregnancy tests, limited diagnostic ultrasound with three certified nurse sonographers, childbirth classes lead by a certified childbirth educator, optionscounseling, post abortion ministry, fatherhood program, individual educational coaching, aswell as relationship and parenting classes. The recent addition of a 31 foot mobile unit hasenabled us to reach beyond our front doors. To date we have served 70 clients in Junction City,Abilene, and south Salina. What an incredible time it is to be a part of the PSC ministry!

We currently bring our iDecide sexual health program to five public schools. This year wewere granted permission to present iDecide in the USD 305 middle schools. With this answerto a long time prayer we are able to impart the truth of purity to more than 1,000 additionalstudents!

This growth has necessitated realigning staff responsibilities to most effectively meet the needsof our clients. Following are the current staff members along with their titles and responsibilities.

Praise God we had 24 teams, 106 walkers and raised a total of

$23,658.50!!!

A HIGHER POWER MUSTHAVE CREATED ALL THIS.”Lisa had been raised in church butnow had many questions, and hervisit for a pregnancy test had led to aspiritual discussion. We were privileged to read some scriptureswith her and talk about her questions.When we shared the gospel, Lisa saidshe had accepted Christ as a childbut “not as an adult.” That day shechose to give her life to Christ. Her friend, Melissa, who had accompanied her also prayed toreceive Christ! We rejoiced with bothwomen and gave them Bibles andchurch referral lists. Each day we askGod to give us opportunities to sharethe gospel with clients. How sweet itwas to share with two and see bothrespond to Him!

These are just a small sample ofstories that we celebrate! If God hasstirred your heart to become a partof the ministering team at PSC or on the Mobile, please contact Leslie at 823-1484 or by email at leslie@pscsalina.com. God bless youand your family this Thanksgivingand Christmas season!
