Saving to Be Able to Give!

I've been sharing savings and learning how to be a better steward of God's money for almost 2 years now. And along this journey, God has placed on my heart to give more than ever.

With a giving heart, I am starting up a monthly ministry focus. This month, our local women's pregnancy center, highlighted HERE, is having a Walk for Life. This is a ministry very close to my heart. Just 8 years ago, my husband and I lost our first child, a son, to stillbirth just 2 days after my due date. Having gone through such a tremendous loss, I have never been able to imagine choosing to abort a child. Eight years later, God has blessed us with 3 beautiful children!

However, I also understand that pregnancy can bring on very difficult times and decisions for women. A Women's Pregnancy Center is there to help those women struggling and to encourage them to choose life for their baby. If I can help in a monetary or material way with this ministry, I look for the opportunity.

Well, now is the opportunity! I am walking in their Walk For Life on March 13th and would love for you to sponsor me. This is a one-time donation. Once I receive your information, the pregnancy center will send you a statement. I do NOT take any financial information (i.e. credit card, checks, etc). All I require is the written amount of your pledge, your name, and your address. You can email me at couponsavinggame@yahoo.com. Or, if you'd prefer, you can send me your info and pay online HERE under Walk Pledge Amount.

If you would like to partner with me in supporting this ministry monetarily, I would love for you to do so. ANY amount helps! Or perhaps you have a crisis pregnancy center in your area that encourages women and couples going through a difficult pregnancy. I would encourage you to support them and see how you can get involved.

One reason I love our local ministry is because of their desire to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with everyone who walks through their doors. They are there to help and to encourage and to give real-life options. They provide many FREE and confidential services (you know how I love free!) including:
  • Pregnancy Tests
  • Ultrasounds
  • Maternity & Infant Clothes and Items
  • Post-Abortion Support Groups
I hope that if you are unable to give monetarily, you might consider a diaper donation, or simply lift this ministry up in prayer.
