On Thursday, November 4th at 6pm we will gather together to celebrate God’s purpose for life. Come and hear the compelling story of purpose as two faithful women talk about how they joined together to pour out God’s love on a young woman facing an unplanned pregnancy.
Thursday, November 4, 2021 19th Annual Fundraising Banquet Doubletree by Hilton, Leominster
Being a medical clinic is costly. We do not receive any government funding. Individuals, churches and businesses with a heart for those in need are our source of income. All our services are free of charge and include pregnancy tests, ultrasounds, childbirth education and more. Our clients have this to say:
“I felt comfortable and grateful for the caring staff. This was a place where no one judged me.”
“I was glad to receive good and valuable information. The atmosphere is warm and uplifting. I was able to relax. It was as though my counselor really knew me.”
We want to continue and you can help.

This year’s theme for our bottle drive is “Freedom” “You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather serve one another humbly in love.” Galatians 5:13 (NIV)
This is what we do at the center, we serve with love. And, here’s a picture of me taken in 1941 my humble beginning. I was an unplanned pregnancy. When my mother and father found out about me, they got married. That was eighty years ago. Times have changed. People facing unplanned pregnancies in today’s world can choose to end the pregnancy, legally.
We want to help them. We are privileged to be able to offer free ultrasounds to Mom’s and Dad’s experiencing an unplanned pregnancy. We want to show them life inside the womb. We need your help to do this, so please give. We are a Christian Ministry and a medical clinic. We do not receive grants from the government, you are our support.
This year we are getting baby bottles to some of our churches. But we recognize that we are still living a hybrid existence and some of you are still streaming your worships. So we are presenting this chance for you to participate on-line.
In God’s love, Gail Gardner Executive Director

Our work continues in this “new kind of normal” we are living in. During our state emergency shutdown we have been reaching moms and potential moms over the phones. We have been able to counsel them, pray with them, and alleviate some of their anxiety. We hope you are able to partner with us in our virtual bottle drive. Our goal is $30,000. Our expenses have not gone away. New expenses will be added as we find our way through this “new kind of normal.” Life is precious. Help us to serve and meet the needs of our community during these difficult times.
In His love, Gail Gardner Executive Director
