And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. Galatians 6:9
Dear Friend,
The encouragement found in the 6th chapter of Galatians bolstered the Board and Staff at the Southern Tier Pregnancy Resource Center as we walked in faith through 2022. Paul’s teaching in this passage reminded us to focus on humility & sacrifice, to invest deeply in the lives of others, and to be Christ’s image bearers for the advancement of the Kingdom. It is with great joy that we embrace the opportunities the Lord provided in 2022 and look ahead to the work that remains and the reaping of what has been sown.
Offering services to men and women in our community who find themselves in a pregnancy situation, planned or unplanned, is the heartbeat of our ministry. The past few years have focused on strengthening our core services through the pursuit of a new ultrasound machine for the Main Office (the purchase of which is tangibly near) and establishing a centralized location for our Life Center. Due to the generosity of our donors, our Main Office and Life Center are equipped to serve the needs of our clients with excellence. With these foundations firmly in place, we are looking out to our world and assessing the needs of our community.
While we celebrate the monumental decision to overturn Roe v Wade, we recognize the battle to uphold the sanctity of life still wages on. Current cultural trends are corrupting God’s established order and our youth and young adults are facing incredible challenges as they navigate life. Misinformation regarding gender & identity, the breakdown of the family unit, and post-Covid repercussions such as pornography addiction, social media induced isolation and depression have left our youth carrying heavy burdens they are not equipped to endure. These young men and women, boys and girls, need to hear truth and receive the hope found therein.
At the STPRC, education & awareness have always been pillars of our ministry. We operate under the beliefs that every life is valuable, that risk avoidance leads to optimal health, and that every person deserves to hear this message. By offering preventative education to the youth and young adults in our community, we can equip them to make life-affirming choices that will reap rewards for generations. In 2022, the Lord provided opportunities for the STPRC to offer education & support to students at Broadway Academy and Elmira College. He has strengthened our relationships with like-minded community partners enabling us to expand our services to the youth they serve. Our prayer is that as we embrace these opportunities, the Lord will continue to broaden our reach.
Many of you over the past few years have joined us in prayer, vision casting, networking, and exploring the opportunity to expand our services beyond the greater Elmira area into Schuyler County. It is with great faith that our Board and staff are committing to the pursuit of bringing this hope to reality in 2023. By expanding our services into Schuyler County we will have the opportunity to serve a population currently unreached by the benefits of options education and ongoing support of the abortion-vulnerable.
Our financial goal for our Year End Appel is $20,000. These funds would be utilized to add a part-time staff member to our team, to purchase materials and curriculum for our education programs, and for the marketing and expansion of our services locally, and in Schuyler County. Dear friends, your gift of any amount towards this goal would not only allow us to expand our offices into Schuyler County but would also enable us to offer sexual risk avoidance education & awareness programs that equip youth in making life-affirming choices for generations. Would you consider supporting our efforts to impact generations?
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit this Christmas, brothers & sisters.
In Christ,
